Greg Mankiw on Fiscal Policy

“”Would you rather go back to 1950s medical care and 1950s prices?” If that option were offered at your place of work, my guess is that you would not take it. What that means is, in some real sense, healthcare is cheaper today if you adjust prices properly to account for quality improvements.”

Mankiw on Obama’s Budget

“Let’s invest in our people without leaving them a mountain of debt,” the president said in his State of the Union address. “Let’s meet our responsibility to the citizens who sent us here.”

Noble aspirations, indeed. But do the numbers inside the document support the rhetoric surrounding it?
