Bush’s campaign on Monday released a letter signed by Prescott and five other Nobel laureates critical of Kerry’s proposal to roll back tax reductions for families earning $200,000 or more.

In The Republic interview, he said such a policy would discourage people from working.

“It’s easy to get over $200,000 in income with two wage earners in a household,” Prescott said. “We want those highly educated, talented people to work.”

Wow. If it’s easy why don’t 97.6% of American housholds (which earn under $200,000) just go get better paying jobs?

Glenn Reynolds says he’s surprised this hasn’t gotten more attention- so am I. It shows how out of touch these people are.

This is the kind of advice Bush is getting. Yikes.
