Foreign spending vs domestic spending, and with more tax revenue, not much standing in the way of full economic recovery now.

So a general increase in taxes for everyone? Or just the wealthy? What do you mean by foreign spending vs domestic spending? that's very vague.

Same issue. Spending means nothing if you can't afford it.

so you're saying the greatest nation on earth can't afford to get its debt/deficit down to more manageable levels?

pessimism FTW!

You copy pasted a description of austrian economics, I don't care. Rawn Pawl isn't going to sweep in and put us back on a gold standard. We are stratified by class, not ultimate individuals.

So now, under some wrath of god, we will start to see a huge demand of commodities and consumer goods just because we are printing money? That's a laughable notion. Kenyesian economics is obviously failing. I suggest you read up on Austrian Economics

the ARRA did spur aggregate demand. not fairy tail stuff.

saner tax rates would help. some reduction in spending would help, but contractionary policy on the tail end of a recession is the stuff of mental retardation.

austrian economics? you mean the rawn pawl way? destroy it in order to save it? the my lai approach?

even lower on the IQ scale. unless, of course, you long for those agrarian days of yore where we all inhabit little huts on ranches in wyoming.

You have two choices at least for this election, one will promise to reduce taxes, and instead rob you by simply printing more money for military purposes, the other will tax progressively and liberally spend the revenue mostly at home. This is what the trends indicate anywho.

Yup, not the way things have been getting done in govt. during my lifetime.
