I am not denying that someone from the Philly Fed said that, I am saying that there is more to it than that. It is not a 'if all other things are equal' analysis. If QE didn't happen, it would have been worse for everyone.
We could end that tax if we quit sending billions overseas which none of the Scandinavian countries do.
I do agree that the US needs to cut the bloated military industrial complex. It's almost like a parasite on the economy and tax payer with very little oversight. Health care companies and Wall Street are up there as well as parasite leaders in America. No wonder they have the most lobbyists. A heist is currently taking place inside the US treasury and the alarm should be going off.
It's worth noting that the Scandinavian countries do in fact send more than ten times as much money in foreign development aid per capita than the US does though.

I'm not against countries helping out other countries, I'm against countries bribing other countries.
When I hear Sanders speak, he says why he feels that way. Hillary can't explain her positions because she doesn't really mean them. Sanders generally does speak the truth. The truthometer that is quoted in the article regarding hours worked compares a boom year to a year when we were losing 700,000 jobs a month.
Sanders base is sick and tired of corporate domination of everything important. I see Sanders as at least a partial barricade against a corporate juggernaut that wants to dominate everything. I will be voting for Sanders in my state's primary and Clinton in the general election because I am convinced that she is the lesser of two evils.
I compliment you on your decision process when you vote. Fox will never tell you what to do. Thank you.
If you vote for Sanders in the primary, Clinton won't be in the general
That's a good basis to choose a president. I weigh ideas and proposals.
It certainly is.
None them are worth a damn as far as doing anything they promise so all that other stuff doesn't matter.
I vote based on who won't scare the crap out of me every time I see them.
Or get us nuked. Those are my only criteria for presidents.
We really need to catch up to the rest of the world with respect to social policy. It can't be of the rich, for the rich all of the time.
That is all America has become, a haven for the rich, who are the parasites of society....they take, take take and give nothing.
I would love to see America become a Democratic Socialist nation like the Scandinavian countries, which are the happiest nations on the planet.
