Yes. I say to my friend, things that have done so much good for our economy--so much good for our economy. We are upside down with red ink on everything. So the answer is: Yes. We need more tax cuts, we need more money spent on wars around the country, around the world. I don't know of anybody who thinks the economy is doing very well. Even today we had the President say things are not good, but we are not in a recession. I think the economists would totally disagree.
