Max Sawicky and I square off on taxes and spending, here is the link. Here is one short bit from Max:
The other connotation of "surrender" here is surrender to the market, or to the fates. It is surrender to amorality, since market outcomes have no positive ethical qualities.

Addendum: Sawicky says impossible, Greenspan says inevitable.
Addendum II: here is the WSJ.com forever permalink, the one above expires in thirty days.
