Everything in some moderation I suppose. So the hope always is that the spending will come down. But there is always some economic benefit, and therefore tax revenue, as a result of tax cuts. So it is never a 1:1 proposition. However, I don't know that a spending cut yields the same kinds of ratios and benefits - except a benefit from not paying debt service. Again, of course, hopefully the spending cuts come - in all the entitlement areas. |

Huh? Hope is not worth a vote. It stands next to denial. |

And after four more years of even more liberal big spending big borrowing big government from Bush will you still say so? |

Chris, You are too pessimistic! Look on the bright side: I heard on NPR this morning about how the baby boomers are going to be a heavy load on Social Security. What nobody has figured on is that all the pot-smoking, LSD-dropping baby boomers aren't going to live long enough to collect SS, and there will be plenty for you and I!

Per, iirc, my initial post here praised the corporate tax cuts for at least being supply-side measures.

Actually corporate tax cuts should be targeted to require investment in new plants and equipment here in the US to really help stimulate anything other than a larger bonus for the officers and a marginal increase in dividends if the company happens to do such. |
