| But all of that is a quick 'sugar high' and does almost nothing to stimulate any real economic growth or even just some activity. I'm irritated at the the talk of 'funding tax cuts' because every time they are tried the gov't ends up with more money. If the gov't really feels it needs to 'fund a tax cut' why not cut it's budget? Real growth comes from business and generally business not closely tied to the government. There may be a lot of money in defense industries but there are far more folks hired in small/medium business and that's what makes the economy go. Big business gets the headlines, but all too often they end up being leaches by the time they give up on their core business and take the 'mark of the government' and do the gov'ts bidding. Of course no growth happens as long as a caring gov't is making sure no one is 'raping the _____' (fill in your favorite victim of business). | |
