And repeated by both parties since...depending on who's in power.
My favorite hypocrite on this particular issue is Krugman who flip-flopped in a matter of 8 weeks...doing so one week after Trump was elected. Impeccable timing!
We already had this discussion a while ago, but you clearly didn’t learn anything from it.
What you spend money on matters just as much as how much you spend. Investments in infrastructure and technology? Definitely worth it. Spending on social welfare programs? Probably worth it. The military? Probably not worth the huge sums we put into it. Borrowing money to reduce taxes? Definitely not worth it when the economy is strong.
Plus we aren’t doing shit about the really huge economic issue which is rising healthcare costs and have partially dismantled the only program in place to deal with that problem. And we aren’t doing enough about global warming.
