You are right that the US has run deficits during war time. Also, until now, the US has never gone to war without a tax increase. Talk about "sharing the burden" - NOT! The tax cuts were intended to return the surpluses to the people (that was Bush's campaign promise). The exact same tax cuts then became a "stimulus package" - and most economists think they were poorly suited for that purpose. I think most of the stimulus over the last few years came from monetary policy, not fiscal policy. BTW, funny how the facts were fitted to the policy! Sound familiar?
