I think this is a mere band-aid- at some point all this borrowing is going to come back to bite us in the ass.

Analogy time
For those who don't like analogies in general and my analogies specifically, you have been warned.
Have you ever seen a Rocky movie? In every movie, Rocky has his confidence shaken, but in every movie his inner strength and potential is there. In every movie Rocky, fundamentally strong, has needed reassurance or a little push from another character, either Adrian, Mickey, Apollo, etc. He gets that push and is ready to fight. During the fight he takes the best shots from his opponent, he never gives up, his inner strength comes to the surface. Rocky overcomes, Rocky is a winner. Our economy is like Rocky, with a little help our economy will overcome, our economy will win.
Anaolgy is now completed, o.k. to continue with normal discourse.
