Common sense tells us that this will make it shrink faster, but expansionary austerity (incorrectly) predicts that governments that cut spending will produce "investor confidence" and trigger more private investment.

This reliance on what @pkrugman calls the "Confidence Fairy" is tragically misplaced. Hoover's cutbacks made the worse. So did IMF cutbacks in "East Asia, Greece, Spain, Portugal, and Ireland."

Big ice storm in S.E Michigan Tuesday and Wednesday, still no power at my daughter's house. We're staying at my niece's house until the power comes back on, but we're not alone. Other 'refugees' here and we're kind of having a party, so there's no chance to write the piece I'd planned.
I've been wanting to share this piece at some point, anyway, so here it is.
