failure to seriously address our spending problem will result in depression. so do we waste more money we have to print to achieve the same end ? drunks always want one more for the road too.
Failure to understand that austerity programs at a time when the economy is just recovering WILL push us in a depression is the biggest danger we face right now.
Why did you never thought about "austerity programs" and "spending cuts" when Bush was spending money on a worthless war and on tax cuts for the wealthy?
Austerity programs would probably have been helpful at the end of Clinton's presidency (because it was one of the few period of SURPLUS we have had throughout our history), and at the beginning of the Bush Presidency. Instead, Bush played "the big spender," and has burdened us with the bulk of the debt we face today. . .and still you insist in blaming President Obama who has been REDUCING the amount of deficit EVERY YEAR since 2010.
