RE:Federal BudgetIt's shameful that politicians are so far removed from understanding economics. Too many trust fund babies running the show who wouldn't know a budget if it bit them.
To be a politician you just keep uttering rhetoric to the masses. Corporations and higher income earners digest the business landscape and try to meet demands that they see emerging. They have to make investments in their ideas and that investment is what grows GDP. They also put their necks on the line. If the business landscape changes, they may have to pay for the risk they took, but they don't get a refund from the tax base.
We need some economists in government!
