Z, let's try this again. You describe deficit targets as "arbitrary," even though anyone who has witnessed your double-standard can figure out why you describe them as such. I pointed this out to you, only to have you pretend that I don't even know what that word means. To me, it's pretty clear that deficits have become unmanageable for many reasons, the biggest one being partisan politics. And that factor, more than anything else, is the real "arbitrary" reason. Now if you want to be part of the solution, and not part of the problem, then you might want to let go of certain ideas such as the notion that people will die if their benefits happen to be cut by a small percentage. Or that anarchy will reign if government is cut by a small percentage. Maybe then you can get people to accept an increase in taxes and not have to sell them in ways that only taxes people richer than themselves. Or have them figure out just how much they'll have to pay for a government that is increasingly becoming a part of their everyday lives. Otherwise it'll be the same old nonsense that led us into this mess in the first place. Tenchusatsu
