US to Rest of World: Drop Dead!
Economically Speaking.
I seem to remember a time when the Republican Party was the party of fiscal responsibility. Or at least so they claimed. Well, if you want to look historically, they were once the party of Lincoln and abolitionists. This is one case where "Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose" just don't apply.
"Under the Bush program to reduce the deficit, U.S. economic growth will be depressed by 1.88 percent in the long-term, compared to 3.68 percent under the more adverse deficit path."
So they're agreed that Bush's deficits, even if he reduces them (ha! This guy spends money like a drunken sailor just back from deployment.) will still hamper what sluggish economic growth there's been. Is there anything this guy can't screw up? Why did we have to get the anti-Midas?
