FC,
Every Administration and Congress has endorse Supply Side Economics since Reagan. It doesn't work. Borrowing money to expand Economies is a failure.
You didn't understand my previous post, and you are falsely conflating two unrelated concepts.

Let's say you borrowed money in order to give everyone a $5,000 check. Is THAT what you call "supply-side economics"? Of course not.
Supply-side economics is a macroeconomic theory that posits economic growth is primarily driven by increasing the total supply of goods and services within an economy. This is achieved by reducing barriers for producers, such as tax cuts, deregulation, and encouraging free trade, which aims to incentivize businesses to produce more and lower prices, thus stimulating demand.
The only part of this statement that MIGHT require borrowed money is tax cuts, and even that isn't a given. Tax cuts can also be achieved by cutting government spending accordingly.

I don't know why you keep associating supply-side economics with borrowing. Even Bill Clinton showed that supply-side economics works without having to borrow, as the budget eventually was balanced under his watch.
