| Fiscal Policy, a General Statement |
Casey: Bob Casey knows that we cannot afford to continue borrowing more money from the central governmental banks of China and other competitor nations in order to support more unjustified tax cuts for multimillionaires. If we don't stop recklessly adding to the national debt, generations of working Americans will have to hand over more and more of their family income to pay it. And our country will be unable to make the investments in human and technological capital that will keep America on top.
That is why Bob Casey so strongly supports a return to fiscal discipline in Washington. As proven in the 1990s, responsible fiscal policies free up more money for private investment, put downward pressure on long-term interest rates, help our position in international trade, and increase consumer confidence in the country's direction. The result is a healthier economy that produces more revenue to help government meet its investment priorities while staying fiscally disciplined.
