While the nation’s budge deficit continues to grow by trillions of dollars, there appears to be little agreement on the path to a balanced spending plan. On this special edition of Carolina Business Review, we talk with the co-chairs of the National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform: Erskine Bowles and Senator Alan Simpson.
I caught the first half of the interview and was riveted. I’ll watch the entire interview tonight.
It’s unfortunate that politicians are reluctant to support the Bowles-Simpson plan. It is a matter of pay me now or pay me later – and later is going to be messy. Politicians are great procrastinators…
Thank you for airing this important discussion – I will spread the word.
This is an informative, intelligent and bipartisan video and should go viral on the internet. I will certainly be sharing it via Facebook.
