Priorities And Triage

Santa Monica Blvd. near Bundy around 1950

Might it be a good idea to balance income and spending?
But if no one borrows what happens to people with money to lend?

Our economy is definitely out of balance. The biggest culprit appears to be government.

Government spending is way out of line with income. This is generally understood to be true.

In real life people must set priorities for the expenditure of time and energy and money etc.

You can't have everything you "want."

That is the new ethic, or old ethic, we must discover or remember.
We can be fine with what we have. But we must set limits on expenditures.
We need really good managers. People who know how to set priorities and work efficiently and economically.

It is really very simple.
"Don't throw good money after bad."
