Heads they win, tails we lose

For the past year, National has been telling us that with the economy so strong the government doesn't need to run surpluses, and so that money should be given away as tax cuts for the rich. Now that things aren't looking so good, he's switched to claiming that we need to stimulate the economy with - you guessed it - tax cuts for the rich.

A case of "heads they win, tails we lose"?
