Government Finances (March 2013)

With competing budgets on the House and Senate floors this week, it’s easy to get lost in the details.

Two things surprised me when I met with President Obama last week.

I recently praised President Obama for his willingness to reach out to congressional Republicans as we grapple with the country’s long-term economic challenges. 

The media appear fixated about when and if a so-called “grand bargain” on our economy will be reached.
