The next time there is a downturn, and we need to run 2 trillion dollar deficits (to fund the stimulus), will the world still be buying our dollars and treasuries?
I think it is naive to believe that the debt will not create long term issues.
Nobody was starving before the tax cuts. We weren't "strangling" anything. And that said, I will admit that a modest corporate tax cut was probably in order (Obama also supported it). What they did cost a lot more than a modest corporate tax rate cut. They unnecessarily borrowed a ton of money to throw from the helicopters.
