Everything about your anniversary issue is a delight. One thing I learned from it is that TIME and I made our debuts on the same day. On March 3, 1923, TIME's first issue date, my father took my mother to the hospital in a horse-drawn sleigh through a raging blizzard just in time for me to make my entrance into the world. I never realized until now that I was in such exalted company! TIME certainly looks a lot better at 75 than I do! JANET MCKONE Dover...
...pleased to note that the benefits of our restructuring and job cuts two years ago have kicked in, and we are now saving billions of dollars annually. Rudolph, you'll continue to guide my sleigh every year, not just foggy nights. We must remain vigilant on costs. But management--that's me--believes the days of wholesale downsizing are fast approaching an end for leading-edge companies like North Pole, Inc.

In those days, if often happened that internists would dig up bodies to dissect. The young lady...
Enter eight reindeer, to the sound of sleigh bells. Supply-side theory, developed by Jude Wanniski and Arthur Laffer and passionately advanced by New York Representative Jack Kemp, held that sharp cuts in income taxes would actually increase government revenues by unleashing the pent-up power of the economy. Jobs and higher wages would explode like popcorn, from which higher tax revenues would follow, despite the lower rates. In no time, the supply-side theory went from being a disputed intellectual curiosity to being the unofficial doctrine of the party. It made possible a new, infinitely optimistic Republicanism, one that...
