"The constant call, primarily by Republicans in Congress, for drastic spending reductions in order to eliminate the federal budget deficit within ten years without further increasing tax revenues seems to have hit a snag recently. The work of Harvard economists Reinhard and Rogoff turns out to have included serious errors which cast the validity of their conclusions, used widely by those seeking to institute such austerity policies in this country in great doubt."
"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has." Margaret Mead (Mostly what other say will be in italics, what I say will not. There will be occasions when this is messed up or forgotten, but generally it will true- for those keeping track of the opining vs the reporting!)
