OT Hi Willcousa, RE: "But it will take both. "

Yes, agreed. I don't want to see the country return to its out of control spending days.

Regards,

Will,

Anytime our fearless leaders want to control spending and cut taxes we can shortly put this economy back on track. But it will take both.

The economy was doing great until 12 months ago when AG raised interest rates a few times too many.

That shows me that your comment is at least partially based on philosophy rather than evidence. Anyway, spending growth under Clinton was smaller than any other modern President (3.6% per year)
