I agree with you 100% Noctis.

As harmful as this might sound to the average person. We don't need surpluses, they are just as harmful as debt. There is no happy medium, its impossible with things such as crime, underground markets, drugs, and any other money that is exchanged illegally. Things like fraud and drug trade are a reason why are taxes are as high as they are. If all illegal transactions all of the sudden became legal then there would be lower taxes. However this would never happen because we don't live in a perfect world. Lets call this the KTOG Theory (the taxation of everything), much like marxism/communism if everyone paid their part than their would be less poverty and corruption (HAIL MOTHER RUSSIA hellfire: ). Since there is tax evasion, we cannot fully equalize our budget.

Surpluses should just be burnt. With this extra cash flow we could pay for NASA, or a global defense shield, or some other government funded project. Yes, they are keeping the economy cruising by creating jobs, but creating jobs never help anyone but a few individuals. The rest of america suffers by having extra cash flow, causing inflation.

So i guess in theory a Conservative can keep the economy stable. However, national econmic stability is impossible.
