Santa? Buzz Lightyear? The Tool Man? Mike Baxter? Hey, I’m still that wisecracking kid from the Midwest, looking for answers to life’s big questions.

@ofctimallen Tim, if you want an explanation of why a government SHOULD run deficits, I’m happy to provide it for you, using accounting.
I’m a Professor of Economics, but a critic of the mainstream which argues, like you here, that governments should run balanced budgets. They shouldn’t.

“The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts” Marcus Aurelius is trying to convey that a person’s happiness is determined primarily by how they think, not by external circumstances.
The nature, discipline, and moral quality of one’s thoughts shape how events are perceived and experienced. If thoughts are rational, virtuous, and well-ordered, life feels content and stable; if thoughts are negative, irrational, or uncontrolled, life feels unhappy regardless of outward conditions. According to him, happiness is an internal state governed by the mind, and improving one’s thoughts improves one’s life
