re: #220 Wendell Zurkowitz (slave to the waffle light)

That is a short-term advantage, and then only for some. We as a whole are only just beginning to see the long-term effects.

I think it’s becoming obvious to more and more people that much of the short-term planning of the past 30+ years is coming back to bite a whole lot of people in the ass. All those years of “putting off til tomorrow” when it came to things like covering pensions and education are now coming back to haunt those who thought the tax cuts passed instead would lead to growth that would cover the cuts.
