One other "reliable" way to depress long-term economic growth rates is to CONTINUE piling up higher and higher deficits.

That's a reliable way to depress long-term economic growth rates compared to cutting those deficits by decreasing spending.

It isn't a reliable way to do so compared to keeping spending on exactly the same path but increasing taxes.
