## Resource

What does David think about some economists saying the U.S. can grow its way out of deficits and debt; that the right policies can generate such robust growth in GDP that the resulting tax revenue will exceed spending? And what is the difference between a bond and a bond fund? David Brooks has answers to these questions in today’s Q&A episode.
