I expect demagogues like Kevin McCarthy and every other Republican in Congress to keep whipping up debt/deficit hysteria. But I find it even more disturbing that not a single Congressional Democrat, and certainly no one in the Biden administration, nor Biden himself, have come forward to even timidly address the absurdities of the deficit myth.

This could have been a teachable moment, one in which people who should know better step up to speak truth to idiocy. That no one who could do so has done so is just infuriating.

‘There are lies, damned lies, statistics and the deficit myth.’ Depressing! Please keep trying, Stephanie.
