The mainstream economics position is that deficit spending is desirable and necessary ONLY during a recession, but that there should not be a permanent deficit.
We are premature on fiscal stimulus, whether it's tax cuts or expenditure increases. We've got to get the debt stabilized before we can even think of those terms," Greenspan said.

In 1956, the federal government opened thirty-three eleven-story towers in St. Louis. By 1972 the city was dynamiting them on live television. Sixteen years. That is the lifespan of one of the most celebrated public housing projects in American history, a complex that won an architecture award from the same profession that designed it.
Pruitt-Igoe cost about $36 million to build, funded under the Housing Act of 1949 and the dreams of planners who believed you could engineer the poor into prosperity by stacking them in concrete. Minoru Yamasaki drew the towers (he later designed the World Trade Center, which also came down on television, though that is another story). The men who approved the project answered to no price signal, no profit, no loss. They spent other people's money on buildings nobody chose to live in voluntarily, then acted surprised when the tenants treated the property accordingly.
Here is what central planning cannot solve: nobody owned the place. Not really. The residents rented from a housing authority that collected rents capped by law and below the cost of maintenance. So the elevators stopped working. The heating failed. Windows broke and stayed broken. By 1971 occupancy had collapsed to roughly 600 people in buildings designed for 10,000. You do not need a degree in economics to understand a building where the toilets back up and no one is responsible. You need only to have read Mises on property without owners. When the bureaucrat spends appropriated funds, he can never replicate the discipline of an owner facing a balance sheet.
The planners diagnosed the failure as a design problem. Too many high-rises, they said. Not enough community space. They never asked whether the entire model of subsidized, politically administered housing produces exactly these results, because asking that question puts the planner out of a job. Charles Jencks called the 3:32 PM demolition on March 16, 1972 the death of modern architecture.
It was the predictable end of property without owners, paid for by taxpayers who never set foot in St. Louis and were billed anyway.
Joshua James King ( a Black man) brutally assaulted Andrea Puerta ( a white woman )who was riding Miami Public Transportation. Surveillance cameras captured the attack..
She suffered multiple injuries and was hospitalized.
King was released on $1,500 bond...
This perfectly explains why mass immigration fails.
A Nigerian student in Japan is upset because his Japanese classmates won’t sit next to him. He says they keep their distance because he’s Black.
Here’s the truth: Japanese people don’t owe you friendship, proximity, or comfort in their own country. If locals don’t want to sit next to you, that’s their choice.
Japan exists for Japanese people. It’s not a social experiment where everyone has to pretend to like each other. If you feel isolated, the answer isn’t to blame the Japanese — it’s to go somewhere you actually belong.
Countries have the right to stay homogeneous. And people have the right to keep their distance.
Indiana Deputy Jon Samuelson stopped on the side of the road to help Sharod Grafton and even brought him to the hospital.
Grafton then pulled a gun and shot Jon 3 times, including through the neck.
Jon is now hospitalized and may be paralyzed from the chest down.
You probably won’t see this story in the legacy media…
There’s a disturbing new trend: racist White girls refusing to give Black men their phone numbers when asked.
Experts warn this microaggression triggers deep inherited trauma from segregation-era rejection, causing many Black guys to unintentionally slap back in frustration.
Is it the parents’ fault for not teaching their daughters to share numbers with Black men? Or society’s for failing to instill proper White guilt and reparative dating?
Thoughts?
Black thug randomly sucker punch*s a White kid. The kid falls to the ground in confusion.
He was simply shopping.
Attack*d.
Unprovoked.
When will we start seeing hate crime charges?
El Salvador Devlet Başkanı Nayib Bukele, göreve geldikten sonra ülkedeki tüm çete ve mafya üyelerini hapse attı.
Yüz binlerce suçluya bedava yemek vermeyeceğini söyleyen Bukele, tüm mahkumları 8-5 mesaide çalıştırmaya başladı.
Bazı mahkumlar yalnızca hapisanede üretimde çalışırken, iyi halli mahkumlar deniz kenarlarını ve plajlardaki çöpleri temizlemek için çalıştırılıyor.
İşte bir ülke böyle güzel hale gelir. Öyle affedip sokağa salarak değil!
Yapacaksın hapisaneleri, atacaksın suç işleyeni, af fln yok! Bedava yemek de yok!
Çalışacaklar ve suçlarının bedelini hapiste çürüyerek ödeyecekler…
Ilhan Omar. Shri Thanedar. Pramila Jayapal. All born in foreign countries, none were citizens by birth. All sitting in the United States Congress. All making clear every single day their loyalty is not to America.
We just introduced a long overdue joint resolution proposing a constitutional amendment to require Members of Congress, federal judges, and Senate-confirmed officers to be natural born citizens. This is the very same standard the President and Vice President are already required to meet.
The people writing America's laws, confirming America's judges, and representing America on the world stage should have one loyalty: America. Not any other country.
For too long we have allowed foreign born members to hold seats in this government while making clear they are America last, not America first. We see it every day. This constitutional amendment will put an end to it.
Liberal reporter:
"Humanity has to decide whether it's worth it to put hundreds of people in a cage so that millions of people can live peacefully. It's quite a dilemma.”
For normal people, this is not a dilemma.
Lock them up, throw away the key.
