Republicans need to accept tax increases.


Democrats need to accept limits on the welfare state. 

The great thing about near-zero rates, for individuals as well as governments, is that they create the illusion you can spend as much as you like without facing any trade-offs — after all, borrowing seems free. 

Some economists even argued as much, and politicians, who never need an excuse to spend, were happy to follow their advice.
