Re: Need Help

If you're framed with power and plumbing the hard parts done.  Everything else is cosemetic.  I should note that basement living spaces are supposed to have 2 areas of egress, so you don't get trapped down there in an emergency.

Re: deficit hysteria, MMT, and KC

I agree with you about the hysteria part.  I think there is a bit of opportunism happening where political scores are being settled under the auspices of "deficit reduction".  That being said, there are serious side effects to debt, deficits and budgets.  Inflation, bonds and stock prices ...
