Fiscal austerity? How can that be, running deficits of $500 billion a year. In my book, that’s called “stimulus”.

Yeah. We've had a ‘stimulus’ every year for decades. We use debt to finance our economy. I'd like to see if we can grow without adding to the national debt.

By my math, if the debt goes up by $10 trillion in 8 years, that’s deficit of $1,250,000,000,000 per year.

Cutting the corporate income tax will free a lot of accountants to contribute to the productive economy. Cutting regulations at the EPA will free a lot of bureaucrats to become baristas.
