More than 30 days leading budget expert proposed to reduce the deficit countries need to take if you want to “buy some breathing space” in order to avoid the debt crisis of the process.
In its report, the “red ink rise” Peterson, the Pew Budget Reform Commission, urged Congress and the White House commitment to stabilizing public debt to 60% of the gross domestic product by 2018. If left unchecked, it is expected to reach 85% in 2018, and then increased to 100%, four years later. To 2038, which can reach 200%.
The case before the economic crisis in these figures, the public debt GDP, 41%. Public debt – as of December 11 7.72 trillion U.S. dollars – on behalf of the money the U.S. owes its creditors. It does not include 4.36 trillion U.S. dollars owed to the federal government, because all from the Treasury, such as social security and health insurance, federal programs over the years borrowed from its own revenues.
Worrying is the public debt to GDP prior to the 200% on inflation concerns – and its twin nemesis, the U.S. dollar depreciation – could cause investors to buy U.S. Treasury trading at higher returns. And high interest rates will make the U.S. more heavy debt burden, because the Government has kept the refinancing of debt already on its books has been both to the interest rate is.
In order to stabilize the gross domestic product, 60% of the debt, the Committee recommends that policy-makers negotiate a package of measures in 2010 will begin gradually in 2012, assuming economic recovery.
“To buy some breathing space, the United States must demonstrate its creditors, it is very stable at a reasonable timetable for a serious federal debt. Both spending cuts and tax increases will be necessary,” the commission said.
A signal to creditors of the deficit reduction plan in place, it might have a positive economic effects, the group said.
“Improve [the creditors] hopes that it can reduce the risk premium investors, therefore, called for U.S. assets to pay creditors, the interest rate,” the report said.
In order to be considered credible plan, but the Committee believes that there should be an automatic trigger set up campaign spending cuts and tax increases of debt, if Congress has set a target to miss in any year.
He said: “The goal is an enforcement mechanism to punish enough to cause members of Congress act, but very realistic, it can be adopted as a last resort, if necessary,” the commission said.
The committee members are a pair of former director of the Congressional Budget Office to collect the two parties, the White House Management and Budget, as well as the Senate and the House of Representatives Budget Committee and former U.S. Comptroller General Assembly, former President, and so on.
Their estimates and recommendations are based on the assumption that the current policies will remain unchanged. One assumption is that most of Bush’s tax cuts will increase the times, which is the scope of alternative minimum tax will be reduced in order to avoid trapping middle-income families, while the normal growth of discretionary government spending at the same rate as the economy, rather than inflation.
