OK, maybe I'm being too pedantic here. But a piece called "Junkie Math" written by the normally reliable FactCheck.org jumped out at me.
Junkie Math
The first sentence gives us the false assumption that everyone agrees that the U.S. deficit is too high.
Simply untrue.
For example, 2008 economics Nobel Laureate Paul Krugman would disagree saying more government stimulus is needed. Deficits come down when the economy is growing. Get the economy growing and then manage down the deficit.
FactCheck seems to need to check its facts. Beware the false assumption.
