:::I make of it, just this: an article on the national debt needs to have the proper perspective. Talking about the growth of the debt during ''one administration'' is all very well, but it doesn't do the subject justice.
:::And I'm not convinced that [[Franklin D. Roosevelt]] was philosophically opposed to deficit spending. Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr., in ''The National Experience'', said that Roosevelt ''introduced'' the idea to Congress, and had to overcome [[Republican Party]] opposition in order to ram it through. Now if you have a source to contradict that, then use it.--[[User:TerryH|TerryH]]<sup>[[User talk:TerryH|Talk]]</sup> 19:50, 3 July 2007 (EDT)
