>>> his 'compassionate conservatism' read: gov't spending was in his mind....<<<<<

Politicians forget that numbers matter. I'm impressed with the fact that our good Uncle borrows and spends about $125 billion more *each month* than what he collects in taxes. How much is this per each gainfully employed productive person? A thousand or so? Probably more. And this is not all they spend, it's just the part that comes from new borrowing. And they pretend that this is normal.

They are insane, and the economists who give them theoretical "cover" are also insane.
