 The deficit dropped by 23 percent in the latest fiscal year, down to $318.6 billion. This occurred because the economy is booming. 

Two things. 

One is that I propose that once and for all we drop this nonsense about having to "pay for a taxcut" by raising taxes.   That kind of dribble is like saying we should use a spending cut to finance an increase in spending.

The other is that it's high time we dropped the 'ain't it awful' hand-wringing.   'Concern' only makes sense if it leads us to work it out like an adult; otherwise we're just wallowing in it like a child.

How about we pay for a tax cut by cutting spending?
