Ted, > There tend to be less problems and more successes when the intent and the potential risk is not criminal. So as long as your intentions are good and the risk is "legal," greatly increasing federal debt is OK? Never said that. But sadly enough increasing the debt has become a secondary concern. For years many of us railed against the tax cuts, war spending and GOP pork. We were ignored. For years, economists said we could not fight two wars while cutting taxes for the rich. No one listened to them. At the same time, no one was watching the housing industry as it created a disaster. Now we are between a rock and a hard place. And imagine how I feel being in this place after complaining for years that the country was going to hell in a hand basket. And to make matters worse, it seems we have infected the rest of the world with our economic follies. Only China looks like its resisting the infection.....and no one knows for how long. Sooooo........unfortunately.....doing nothing is not an option. I wish it were.
