Many years ago in college, I was introduced in econ 101 to the concept of guns or butter. And I have recently considered the plight of our current "conservative" president.
With a deficit spiraling out of control and no end in sight, what are some of the issues that are facing the U.S. The war in Iraq, the promised rebuilding of New Orleans, the proposed tax cuts and the looming implementation of the new Medicare prescription drug program, what are the consequences of these decisions?
And all of this from a "conservative" president! Go figure.
