Deficits, Debt and the Economy Getting Out of the Financial Maze

No subject more occupies the attention of the public & the Congress than the federal budget deficit. Indeed deficit reduction is the centerpiece of the Republican CONTRACT WITH AMERICA. This book, written by an economist with a wide range of government & academic experience, attempts to put the issues into perspective in a way intended to be intelligible to the general reader. How serious is the problem? Did Clinton cut the deficit or did the recovering economy do the job for him? Can deficit reduction be accomplished without harm to the economy? What are intelligent ways to deal with runaway health inflation? Can other entitlement programs be reformed to effect economies without harming the programs? What is the relationship between the budget deficit & the ongoing trade deficit? How does our budget deficit affect the deficit problems of other countries? Do deficits necessarily cause inflation? Do deficits place severe burdens on future generations? In what ways might this be true? Is it important to repay the national debt?
