Demand is up
DEMAND IS UP by John Cole, politicalcartoons.com
Cole illustrates the fundamental paradox of post-2008 fiscal policy: economic demand required massive government spending to prevent collapse, but that spending drove deficits and debt to levels not seen since World War Two. The cartoon captures the impossible math of stimulus versus austerity.
