Lawrence (Larry) Kudlow (born August 20, 1947), is an American conservative, supply-side economics enthusiast and television personality. Kudlow currently hosts the TV program Kudlow & Company on CNBC. Kudlow is also the economics editor for National Review (a political magazine) and its online complement, National Review Online. He is also the CEO of his own consulting firm, Kudlow and Company. A syndicated columnist, his articles appear in numerous U.S. newspapers and web sites. He also runs his own blog, Kudlow's Money Politic$. He opposes estate taxes, as well as taxes on dividends and capital gains. Kudlow advocates that employees be compelled to make greater contributions to their pension and medical costs, suggesting that these expenses are an undue burden on corporations. Kudlow defends high executive compensation as a manifestation of market forces and opposes most forms of government regulation. He believes that reducing taxes will increase governmental revenue through expansion of the overall economy. In general, he supports smaller government that interferes less and citizens who take more individual responsibility. He advocates wide ownership of stocks and frequently speaks of a broad "investor class" that includes most Americans. Kudlow has now become a harsh critic of corporate corruption at Enron, Worldcom, and other companies.http://www.nationalreview.com/kudlow/kudlow012102.shtmlhttp://www.nationalreview.com/kudlow/kudlowprint012202.htmlhttp://www.nationalreview.com/kudlow/kudlow012802.shtmlhttp://www.nationalreview.com/kudlow/kudlow111802.asphttp://article.nationalreview.com/print/?q=NmZlNzU0NWIyMDA5NDAzOGNmZWJiYTY3ZGFjZWFlZmM=
