Okay what about military spending then? How does one justify the spending of millions of dollars on a single fighter plane, that then has to be maintained? Especially if its with weapon manufactures who lobbied for these contracts?

Am really surprised that you would think that Economics is really an art form at all, lets remember that this social science is still in it's infancy most of its laws and views have been changed over year on year because while it does have some absolutes its been confronted with new information over and over again from the great depression, to military spending, to protectionist trade.

I studied economics for 4 years in University and all I can say that 90% of it is following market trends, and absolute evaluations only can occur years later after all the data has been divulged.

Nice.

Well you proven my point, you have increased government spending, which doesn't factor in defense and military spending increases, at the same time you have a shrinking of tax base. Increasing federal deficits.

I just find it ridiculous for you to claim that Republican spending can recreating multiplier effects later on while you cannot assume the same for a Democratic president (really our usage of them being liberal is false).

Furthermore using abstract figures of government increases in spending doesn't really give us a good indicator of the economy, which one encapsulate one side of the nation, my preferred count in the growth of the middle class since it means people moving from low incomes families into the middle class, and at the same time allows more middle class families to move into the upper classes of income.

This is an interesting report. http://dpc.senate.gov/dpc-new.cfm?doc_name=fs-110-1-70

You forget that the 2007 figure is Katrina and the shoring up of infrastructure programs post bridge collapse.

Are you saying that the Healthcare program is not a plus to an economy? Why not look at it in the reverse and look at how liberal spending on infrastructure has allowed Republicans to have tax cuts and live on depreciating infrastructure.

Democrats don't engage in costly wars? What was World War 2 then? What was LBJ with the Vietnam war?

VideoSift 2nd Presidential Debate Liveblog Party (Election08 Talk Post)

Wrong day and way too late for me. Last time I had to wait till 4 AM to watch the thing live.

I honestly don't expect anything practicality amazing and or shocking form either candidates.

Obama needs to nail McCain but is reluctant to do so via direct comparison between McCain Policy and Bush Policy.
