Isaiah 63: 7-8—I shall make mention of the lovingkindnesses of Yahweh, the praises of Yahweh, according to all that Yahweh has granted us, and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which He has granted them according to His compassion and according to the abundance of His lovingkindnesses. For He said, “Surely, they are My people, sons who will not deal falsely.” So He became their Savior.

Jeremiah 12: 14-17:

Thus says Yahweh concerning all My wicked neighbors who strike at the inheritance with which I have endowed My people Israel, “Behold I am about to uproot them from their land and will uproot the house of Judah from among them.  And it will come about that after I have uprooted them, I will again have compassion on them; and I will bring them back, each one to his inheritance and each one to his land.  Then if they will really learn the ways of My people, to swear by My name, ‘As Yahweh lives,’ even as they taught My people to swear by Baal, they will be built up in the midst of My people.  But if they will not listen, then I will uproot that nation, uproot and destroy it,” declares Yahweh. (Jeremiah 12: 14-17)

The New York Times:

Take: The NYT has an infantile view of the developments in Egypt.  You can bet that they mirror the perspectives of President Obama and his closest advisors.  Thomas Paine wrote, “These are the times that try men’s souls.”  When he penned that line, we had better leaders in the US than we have today.

A thousand mile journey begins with the first step.

An editorial in yesterday’s NYT raised questions about cutting spending and dealing with our deficit and debt problems.  See Debt Limit Follies for details.  The NYT editors’ perspective is exactly what I expect from them.  Unfortunately, they are wrong … again, and they’ve been wrong for a long, long time.

In theory, Keynesian economics suggests that in good times government should create a surplus, and in bad times government should use the surplus and borrow if necessary to stimulate the economy.  That’s sound reasoning despite what people today generally think about John Maynard Keynes.  In practice, however, it doesn’t work out that way.  Borrowing and spending are addictive, and legislators caught up in the heat of the moment pay scant attention to the long-term effects of debt. They borrow and spend during the good times and the bad, and they end up mortgaging the futures of their children and grandchildren.

It’s true that we have to pay our debts and that the effects of defaulting on our debts would be disastrous.  The debt ceiling should be and will be raised because it’s the right thing to do.  It’s also true that Congress should pay for what it spends, but Congress spends too much.  When confronted with a spending problem, the solution is not to increase taxes.  The right thing to do is cut spending.  Extracting spending cuts from LP legislators in the process of raising the debt ceiling is perfectly appropriate.

Breaking a borrowing and spending habit is at least as difficult as weaning a heroin addict from the needle.  There will always be those among us who say that they know we can’t continue with our profligate ways by borrowing and spending, but we simply can’t stop now.  “It’s too dangerous,” they say.

Nonsense.  If not now, when?

An old Chinese proverb says, “A thousand mile journey begins with the first step.”  We have a long road in front of us, so let’s get started.  The editors and columnists at the NYT may kick and scream the whole way.  That’s exactly what we should expect from unruly adolescents.  If they were our children, we would pull over for a few minutes and tan their backsides.  That’s something their parents should have done.  In any event, we can’t let their childish fits of anger prevent us from doing what we have to do.
