Ted, > Next year, Bush's tax cuts will expire......that will raise revenue. The Bush tax cuts have been unfairly demonized from day one. In reality they never amounted to much of an economic stimulus nor did they represent a big share of the deficit. The biggest contributor to the deficit was the dramatic increase in spending under Bush and the GOP, contrary to their ideals of fiscal conservatism. Now we're going to see just how fiscally unconservative Democrats can be. > Later in the year, Iraq will be mostly over, reducing spending.....then the year after that, Afghanistan will be winding down....another reduction in spending. Hopefully, Obama will finish what HW Bush started.....reducing our military to a more reasonable level and that will reduce spending further. Of course, the "peace dividend," which Obama and the Democrats have already planned to spend three times over. I hear Obama has already identified $2 trillion in savings. Of course, that's over 10 years, i.e. $200B per year, and even by the end of that the deficit will only be half that of today. Tenchusatsu
