TAXPAYERS FOR COMMON SENSE-During this week’s debate President Obama and Governor Romney argued over a lot of things. One of them was deficit reduction plans. We’re glad that was one issue they tussled over, and we hope we hear more about solutions to our fiscal problems from President Obama, Governor Romney, and every candidate for Congress and the Senate.
There are lots of plans out there, from the wide ranging Simpson-Bowles plan, named after the co-chairs of the National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform, to the Domenici-Rivlin plan, the Gang of Six plan, and many others. But what all these plans have in common is that their grand vision requires future action to work out the details. But our growing debt and the imminent threat of sequestration require immediate action on specific details. So we took our hand at it.
