I don't think the economy is running well, myself.
The economy is like a cup of tea. It's better without adding too much sugar.
Pushing for high growth means creating the bust a little later.
Right now, the model is simply to avoid paying bills and to lever the assets to the max.
The liabilities will appear in due course as they did in 2008.
And then we deal with the recession. Republicans love their boom-bust economics. I prefer steady as she goes.
