review 1: This book explains in very simple terms what is causing our huge budget problems. Sometimes a bit repetitive. Also, although he claims to not choose sides with either political party, I find his criticism of failed Democratic policies to be harsher than that of failed Republican policies - still though, both parties' blunders are shown. In all though, a very clear reasoning is given, as well as what others have postulated as possible solutions.
review 2: Who knew that the 9 trillion dollar federal debt could make such light reading?Lots of graphs, footnotes and one-off stories make the material of this book easier and faster to read than some. It may lack a bit of depth (compared to Pete Peters or someone of his ilk) but makes up for it in reach and readabi
... morelity. Plus, in one of the last chapters you get to make your own federal budget/tax plan and solve the deficit. I figured it out in like ten minutes! How do you like dem' apples Greenspan! less
