When was the interview, Chuck? There's a line in there that makes me
think
it was awhile ago:

[BILL MOYERS: And these tax cuts are not pulling the economy out of this
recession.]

I think recent GDP numbers are proving that statement to be absolutely
false.

The interview was about 30- days ago.

Experiment with a broader perspective.
Even if the economy is making the normal
recovery rom a recession it may still be ture that:

hese tax cuts are not pulling the economy out of this
recession.]

If we are pulling out of a recession-
The tax cuts may have nothing to do with it.

How many times has the economy recovered, *without* tax cuts?

How many times has the economy grown at an 8.2% annualized rate without tax
cuts?



If you read Peterson's comments with an unbiased mind, it's hard to avoid
concluding that our present course leads to a rather obvious reef, just
over
the horizon.

Peterson is a strong proponent of cutting entitlement spending. Are you?
