The bankrupting of America how the federal budget is impoverishing the nation

The Bankrupting of America is a broad book with an urgent message based upon research and reflection by one of the country's distinguished political economists. As David Calleo shows, the federal budget deficit is both a symptom and a cause of America's ungovernability and decline. Slowly, it has been forcing a crisis in our domestic and foreign policy, and in the federal system itself. This progressive breakdown is not simply the fault of mistakes made in the last two.

As Calleo sees it, the weakness of our public sector is a heavy burden for the nation. The federal political machinery is in extremely bad working order--even by its own historical standards. The federal government has grown incapable of conceiving, enacting or sustaining coherent."
