Blogging will be light this week
We're going skiing with the family, in what I hope becomes an annual tradition. And in the meantime, if the sequester hits, I won't be worried at all. It's only a very small portion of total government spending, which is already way too big. A little austerity on the spending side is overdue: way past time for the federal government to tighten its belt. The rest of the country has been doing that for years now.

I am all for the sequester cuts, which are a good down payment toward the overall 40% cuts needed to balance the Federal budget.
Looking forward your post of a 360 degree panoramic photo from the slopes...
So true.
I'm one of the people who thinks the military cuts are especially overdue.

Cleveland Federal Reserve Bank’s updated estimate of 10-year expected inflation: only 1.53%
From Dr. Perry.
Inflation?
The real risk now is zero bound.
Stay tuned...
"The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) was
unchanged in January on a seasonally adjusted basis, the U.S. Bureau
of Labor Statistics reported today. Over the last 12 months, the all
items index increased 1.6 percent before seasonal adjustment."
This is a microscopic rate of inflation; and if right-wingers Don Boudreaux and Carpe Diem Perry are correct, the CPI actually overstates inflation.
Where is the inflation that so worried some observers?
Instead I am seeing perma-ZLB sitting up shop....
