while im here:
I think the best way to get out of this crisis is to focus on higher taxes for the rich, the money that raises can be used to both pay down the defecit, and to invest in areas that can create jobs, it would also allow nations to keep there public services strong, which is essentail when times are hard and many people rely upon them.
y'all can hate on me now, im past the point of caring tbh...

I think you're grossly over estimating how much we can raise from higher taxes for the rich... or at least in context of how much we need to spend.

to be fair, I would cut spending on some things too, though I doubt the same things most poeple here would, I'm thinking things like defence and top public servants salaries, i'd also reallocate existing funds and stuff.

You don't improve the economy by stealing peoples money it does not work.
You create jobs by lowering taxes
and then the gov't gets more revenue

Well, didn't know you were a Keynesian =D
Keyensians LOVE lowering taxes during a recession.
