Weisbrot: the Long Haul

[alex lantsberg]

seems though that the argument is not whether or
one should do any deficit spending.  the choices
facing bush are whether to pay back the public
debt, refund the surplus, or put the money into
the SS trust fund.  the only spending increases
that would come from that admin would be for DoD
procurement and potentially some corporate
welfare.   so my question remains,  what is
weisbrot's reasoning against paying down the
public debt in light of these considerations?
