re: #196 uncah91

Here is some common ground. We need to address the deficit in the medium term, once the economy gets much closer to full employment.

Agreed.

Here is where I disagree with you and Ryan, more tax cuts cannot be part of that equation. Because of the insistence on more tax cuts, the Ryan budget actually enlarges the deficit.

I didn’t say that tax cuts increases cannot be part of the equation. (Or if I did somewhere, please point it out because it would have been inadvertent.) I said that the Ryan is willing to place front and center a growing fiscal danger that most politicians not only ignore, but abet:

Bush and Obama have kicked budgetary issues down a road that leads to a cliff. Ryan has seemed willing to confront that fact.
