In this week’s OtherWords editorial package, Kate Colarulli calls for an end to oil and gas tax breaks and Carl Gibson explains why luring corporate profits stashed overseas back to America with a tax holiday would actually push us further into debt. We’re also running an op-ed by Christine Ahn and Kavita N. Ramdas, a column by Donald Kaul, and a cartoon by Khalil Bendib that put former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn’s alleged sex crimes into context.
