First problem, you are quoting former Enron Advisor Krugman. Second problem, the 'savings' from ending both wars have already been counted and spent. Third problem, compound interest on accrued debt. "low borrowing costs" is a bloody joke when the Fed is artificially borrowing fiat money at...

Liberal/Progressive doesn't mean what it meant at the turn of the 20th century. The language, like many other things, was usurped by ideologies which are anything but Liberal or Progressive. It is much more difficult to honestly debate ideas when the language and labels are obfuscated. The...
