U.S. headed for fiscal train wreck: Roubini - The Globe and Mail

U.S. headed for fiscal train wreck: Roubini - The Globe and Mail: "The Obama administration did the right thing early, and avoided another depression. He is still doing the right thing now in pointing out the risks of early austerity. And he is limited by an unco-operative Republican party trapped in a belief in voodoo economics, the economic equivalent of creationism. Even so, he and his party have been unwilling to tackle long-term entitlement spending. Two years in, and this means the U.S. remains on an unsustainable fiscal course."
