-Deficits are not implicitly bad - in fact, the Reagonomics defecit has much theory behind it . . .
-"Outsourcing" is not an implicit negative
- "Diminishing academic performance" is quite subjective, and may not show objective performance outcomes to support the theory
-Past that, I actually agree with much of your editorializing - but much like the OP (double meaning), you're oversimplifying.
