“Our practical choice is not between a tax-cut deficit and a budgetary surplus. It is between two kinds of deficits: a chronic deficit of inertia, as the unwanted result of inadequate revenues and a restricted economy; or a temporary deficit of transition, resulting from a tax cut designed to boost the economy, increase tax revenues, and achieve -- and I believe this can be done -- a budget surplus. The first type of deficit is a sign of waste and weakness; the second reflects an investment in the future.” FirstsBelieveKindTwoDoneChoicesI BelieveResultsEconomyCuttingAchieveTypeTaxesWasteWeaknessEconomicsIncreaseInvestmentDebtPracticalsBudgetsTemporaryTransitionTaxationRevenueDeficitInadequateBoostInertiaTax CutsSurplusUnwanted Author:John F.

“The private sector is first of all much larger than the public sector. The waste we see in that sector does not result from the fact that people spend their money carelessly.

“American airstrikes...create risks, especially if our intelligence there is rusty. The crucial step, and the one we should apply diplomatic pressure to try to achieve, is for Maliki to step back and share power with Sunnis while accepting decentralization of government. If Maliki does all that, it may still be possible to save Iraq. Without that, airstrikes would be a further waste in a land in which we've already squandered far, far too much.” IfsShouldTryingMayDoeStillsGovernmentWould BeAcceptingStepsToo MuchRiskShareLandAchieveMilitaryWastePressureIraqCrucialDiplomaticDecentralization Author:Nicholas D.
