From the editors of the award-winning nonpartisan Web
site Public Agenda Online comes this irreverent and candid
guide to the federal budget crisis that breaks down into
plain English exactly what the fat cats in Washington are
arguing about Federal debt will affect your savings, your retirement, your
mortgage, your health care, and your children. How well do
you understand the government decisions that will end up
coming out of your pocket? Here is essential information that every American citizen
needs—and has the right—to know. This guide to deciphering
the jargon of the country's budget problem covers everything
from the country's $9 trillion and growing debt to the fact
that, for thirty-one out of the last thirty-five years, the
country has spent more on government programs and services
than it has collected in taxes. It also explores why elected
leaders on every side of the fence have so far failed to
effectively address this issue and explains what you can do
to protect your future.
