Op-Ed Columnist – Till Debt Does Its Part – NYTimes.com.

Krugman says:

The only real reason for concern [about debt] is political. The United States can deal with its debts if politicians of both parties are, in the end, willing to show at least a bit of maturity. Need I say more?

He’s right.

The right are wrong.

  1. Richard,

    Does the definition of “maturity” include the concept of cutting governmental spending ……. ever?

    Or is it a one-way street?

    No – unfortunately

    Pensions have been cut

    Benefits have been cut

    Many things are paid for now which weren’t

    Defence has won

    PFI has won

    So it’s not a one way street unless you’re big business
