He has also stated a commitment to reduce the budget deficit. It
remains to be seen how the tax reduction he has argued for would
accomplish that. I haven't seen a single analysis that explains how
this tax cut will reduce the deficit.

Bush may (or may not) be smart politically, but there is clearly a
difference between his foreign policy team, which incorporates a
diversity of views, and his economic team, where very member of the
original team has quit or been pushed out. Bush seems to be lacking
the economic policy equivalent of Rice, someone who defines a
longer-term consistent message. Until he gets one, I will not trust
Bush's policy to be well thought-out.
That to me is the biggest reason to be worried about the future of
the US economy -- a president (or administration) that doesn't
understand what it is doing can cause a lot of damage.

If O'Neill and Lindsay were
in your opinion right, then why do you refer to them as Laurel and
Hardy. This is part of your problem, MASSIVE Mark. You
are overly critical of everything. We're either going to have
MASSIVE inflation or MASSIVE deflation. You don't care which
as long as it is MASSIVE and destructive.

Bush is smart politically.
There was a study done in the late 80's that said for every new
dollar of tax money brought to the government by economic growth,
Washington spent $1.30 (or some figure like that). That was the
80's. I doubt things have changed. Bush is choking of
Washington's money supply. That's the only way to get them to
reduce spending. It's the only way PERIOD. You seem to think
that these bigger deficits are a problem. Recently, there was a
book published that studied the effects of large national debts on
countries. England in the 1800's had a national debt that was
300% of GDP. THAT'S MASSIVE, MARK. A number even you would
appreciate. They built up that debt thru wars and empire
building. But it wasn't a problem for England. They paid it off
and now they are just fine.
The only way to make Tiny
Daschle say "Well, I guess we don't have money for new
social-dependency (aka vote-buying) programs." is to put him in a
deficit position. What are the Dumocrats really complaining about
today? Listen carefully. They are complaining that they can't
enact a drug benenfits program (aka social dependency program, aka
vote-buying program). They are complaining that they can't make
healthcare free for everyone. They don't want to pay down the
debt. They want to take our money from us and use it to make us
dependent on a social welfare State. Despite the fact that we
know socialism and welfare failed...MASSIVELY.
The only way...THE ONLY
WAY...to cut Washington's spending habit is to take away their
money. And THAT is exactly what Nucular George is doing.
Do you see anything in the
world today that is going right, MASSIVE Mark? Anything positive?

How can YOU ignore everything
besides the tech sector? If everything but the tech sector has
turned the corner on the economy, that sounds like a good thing
to me.
With respect to the
"derivatives bubble", prove to me that there is one. This is
the first I've heard about it. Lately, Warren Buffet has been
saying a lot of stuff with which I don't agree.
FYI, consumers have been
repairing their balance sheets as well. Sorry I can't remember
the numbers on that one either. It's not as dramatic as the
improvements on the corporate side, but it was an improvement.
So you're joining Simms on
predicting MASSIVE Great Depression II.

like pro forma accounting. If I didn't have to make my house
payment everything is rosy. The markets have seen their lows
only if the derivitivies bubble doesn't burst, or consumer debt
doesn't come home to roost. Warren Buffet has said that
derivities are a "time bomb" waiting to happen. Maybe the fed
will be able to balance everything out over time but I wouldn't bet on
it.

Corporations have been doing
balance sheet repair for 2 years now. AT&T alone has
eliminate over $50 BILLION in debt. I saw on the tube last
week someone who had a stunning statistic on what the S&P
profits are if you ignore the tech sector. Wish I could
remember what that statistic was. And the tech sector will
fall in line soon enough. You are stuck in a rut. The
markets have seen their lows. Shake it off.
