Rövid leírás:
Fiscal Therapy takes a critical look at how and why the U.S. has run up its debt so high in the last four decades, what other countries have done to dig themselves out of this level of red ink, and what needs to be done now if the U.S. is to avoid bankruptcy in the 2050s and beyond.

Fiscal Therapy shows how to make America's economy stronger and fairer by meeting long-term budget challenges while also addressing its short-term need for more investment and better social policy.
America is facing a double-edged sword of budget challenges. In the coming decades, rising public debt will hurt our economy, threaten our global leadership, and reduce the living standards of our people. It will require tax increases and spending cuts to bring about a sustainable outcome. At the same time, however, America has pressing needs -- from improving our schools and making child care more available to rebuilding our infrastructure and investing more in scientific research -- all of which require upfront investments right now.
In Fiscal Therapy, William Gale diagnoses these two set of challenges and explains why we must address them simultaneously. Fiscal Therapy shows that we can address our long-term budget challenges in ways that also help us meet our short-term needs, and we can do so without radically transforming our current institutions and existing programs.
Gale draws lessons from the nation's history; takes guidance from the experiences of other advanced nations; reconciles the twin demands of economic growth and social fairness; and addresses the obstacles that America's poisonous politics and fickle public opinion present.
Fiscal Therapy provides a clear, comprehensive, and optimistic approach around which liberals and conservatives can rally. One that will leave the United States a stronger, more prosperous, and fairer nation.
Dealing with fiscal deficits and government debt is important, but the discussion is so discomforting that it risks turning people off. Fortunately, Gale does a better job than I did, and he kept me engaged until the endGale does a great job of laying out what's likely to happen if we allow deficits and debt to grow on their current paths.
