Of note: AG's claim today that budget surpluses would balloon over the coming years because of continuing increases in PRODUCTIVITY!!!
the debt would be payed off in ten years?
The only possible way I can make sense of this is he means: the govt will continue to fudge inflation data so as to minimize payments to seniors and the like (hence debt reduction) whilst pumping up the money supply and true inflation to the benefit of the govt.

Either that or he is simply on drugs...
