There are times when deficit spending works but then the piper must be paid. But you can't keep borrowing and spending forever.
As a result, today, our kids & GKids are inheriting 22 Trillion in debt (and probably another 100T+ in obligations)
BOTH PARTIES - both sides, see that Wayne ; ) - got us here |

I agree you can't continue borrowing and spending. That is why Clinton and Obama both raised taxes - to bring in more revenue. Subsequent to that, the def. went down. If you want to say the Dems. always increase taxes, I'd agree with you. |
