Fixing America's Finances

 

Topic Image

The Bush administration wracked up an addition $3 trillion in federal debt. Feb. 2009 projections are for an additional $8 trillion in US federal debt over the next four years. The US debt is growing large enough to take away capital from dozens if not hundreds (and there are only 192 members of the UN, and up to 216 nations by the most optimistic count) of countries. Few Americans will be able to justify morally taking most of the word's money, even if the US were able to come up with the money. What's more likely is that US interest rates will spike, even as US federal and state taxes spike. Is there a better plan than we've heard or seen to date? I think so, and this topic column is for people who are thinking about it to compare and contrast ideas.
