TPS

Unless you're a bank, the private sector doesn't create new deposits when it spends; the government does when it spends in excess of tax revenues.

Good points, and I will take a closer look to respond. Since I'm getting old, is this THE KRC, the one responsible for creating PPP so many years ago?

The federal government is usually the cause of public sector deficits since the states have to balance their budgets over time. In addition, the federal government is the only entity that can spend without borrowing first, which is how it helps "create" the private sector surpluses.

You remember, it's a pretty simple identity from the national income accounts: S-I = G-T + CAB (current account) Assuming CAB =0, the public sector's deficit (G>T) creates a private sector surplus (S>I). The Household and Corporate sector's savings (yes, profits tend to rise) are increased by the size of the deficit. You are referring to the use of deficits to scare people into believing "social programs need to be cut because we can't afford them." Deficits can matter, but not in the way most people believe.

Usually it's the guys on the right who declare the deficit sky is falling. Yawwwnnnnnn........Reagan proved deficits don't matter.....

In case anyone was wondering what corporations are doing with all of those "overseas" profits being "repatriated".... https://itep.org/new-study-confirms-offshore-earnings-are-flowing-into-stock-buybacks-not-jobs-and-investments/

A strong possibility....

NP's confidence is very fragile and one more bad game could destroy him. Yes, I do think he can play QB at an adequate level in this league....

Hopefully the new CB will get up to speed ASAP, as I've been saying they have (had) no one after Davis who is becoming more and more questionable as a starter. They need the D to keep them in games just to make it somewhat interesting for people. Ugh....

I believe Jerry Hughes is now the all-time leader of "in the grasp no-sacks." The number of times a guy has his hands on the QB but fails to get him down....

We got to see what Bojorquez offers--hang time and distance combined. Hopefully we just won't see him so much....

So I'm having a little trouble spotting that Trump Trend....? I have no problem giving him credit for accelerating GDP growth this year due to his tax cuts and spending increases, but the data supports the notion that the economy was simply moving on trend in his first year, at best.

Yes, you could see it in Peterman's eyes that something wasn't right; there weren't many on-target throws as a consequence.

No, Teller simply needs more time. He will get there soon enough....

That's not good. On the bright side, I'm happy to see Croom active, which makes me think we'll see a lot of Clay, Thomas, and Croom in the passing game.

A successful start is: If they score more points than in their first away game last year...

Was that Keuchly who said to McD, "that dude is a freakazoid!" About Tremaine, then they cut to a shot of him--he looked like the a predator.

The analogy is currently alive and well in one respect, the nastiness expressed by some who were wrong about Peterman winning the job. Rather than supporting the guy, they can't wait to be proven right...

If he is like Pennington, that would be great. I would disagree that he's "not a threat to run." He has no problem tucking it and gaining yards when all else fails.

Nate won the competition clearly, and it’s not just the games that determine the outcome. McD showed last year that he’s willing to make a change when he believes the alternative will make you better. It was not a Tyrod screwing up that led to McD’s decision, it was what Nate was showing consistently in practice— that he could give them more passing options on O. Allen will take the reins when he shows the same consistency. However, in this case, Allen will also play if Nate bombs or when they are out of contention.

Remember, NP got the start last year because TT wasn't giving them enough at the position AND more important what he was showing in practice.

I'd guess same for Bills. A game where most mistakes loses?

Big test Sunday against Roman's running attack, so we'll see if the Star investment pays off early...

Sounds like we're in for a run-dominated game this week. The description of the O-line could be the Bills. Big test for the run D against Roman. Not liking the matchup....

I was happy to see them add a CB, and hope he's better than the Pitts and Gaines.
