Actually they still 1500 trillion, or $1.5 quadrillion in the form of derivatives that we're going to owe because of the rules of fractional-reserve banking

And we also need a tax cut.
Hmm we need the same amount of money spent each year to service our debts. If we cut spending then we have less money in circulation. So the percent of money spent on servicing the debts will go up. So less money will be spent on growing the economy.

We need a bigger tax base. We need full employment. How do we get this? Give everyone money to spend. How do you get it? You simply print it.

Nothing to do with that at all....


snort.

What uncertainty? Obama gave breaks to Jet owners (in Stimulus) then 2 years later rants about the breaks. Congress passes a banking bill then Senators Gilibran and Shumer lead other congressmen in a letter asking to not enforce certain provisions.
Don't you think that is the model of consistency?

Certainly it has to do with the uncertainity, but that is the fault of both parties and more so the tea baggers since they stand for corporate welfare. American business just doesn't know how much welfare they will get, they are holding out for more and are holding the American worker hostage.
