9. Some percentage, sure. The exact percentage, and whether it's material, from a fiscal policy standpo

Without any supporting facts, it's little more than a rhetorical political weapon, and since the lag means the status shown is directly impacted by the previous administration's fiscal policies, it would be nice if we could stop using that weapon to savage our own policies/people. Plenty of political foes are happy to do it for us.
