New Jersey News Outlets Trot Out UCLA's Tired "SSM = Economic Stimulus" Meme, Again

 

NBC 10 Philadelphia reports:

"If same-sex marriage is legalized in New Jersey, the state could see an economic boon of $119 million over three years, economic experts say."

Who are these supposed "economic experts"?

Later, NBC 10 claims this report is from the Philadelphia Business Journal.

But the Philly Business Journal, it turns out, is using the same source that all these outlets cite when they try to claim redefining marriage will stimulate the economy: the Williams Institute.

Yes, the same Williams Institute whose economic arguments Maggie Gallagher and I have debunked numerous times in the past.

For many gay marriage activists, if an argument doesn't work, just keep repeating it, over and over again.
