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