Nice logic. So since Bush borrowed $640 billion over five years for Iraq, it is fine to borrow $780 billion for special interests in the first thirty days.
Didn't really say that, but thanks for making an ass of yourself for me. = )
It's probably not the right thing to do, but I happen to agree with the Keynesians since they've been proven to be right a few times, which is a few times more often than the supply-siders. And who really knows until five, ten years from now when things are either better or they aren't? And as regards "special interests," if insuring kids so they won't die of chickenpox and funding education is a "special interest," sign me up, I'll be glad to pay in.
Supply-side has been such a dismal failure. Thank goodness the Messiah is working hard to undue all the damage to the economy done by the last 30 years of those policies. I expect he'll have the stock markets back to pre-Reagan levels by July or so.
Mm. The stock markets have been doing steroids for 30 years. It's time for them to get off the juice and on a more reasonable program of diet and exercise before they all have massive aneurysms or catastrophic kidney failure.
