If the country doesn’t act on the federal budget mess, it will affect our paychecks, our savings, our mortgages, our kids’ prospects in life, what kind of health care we’ll get, and our chances of ever retiring, say Jean Johnson and Scott Bittle, authors of Where Does the Money Go? Your Guided Tour to the Federal Budget Crisis.
Coming not a moment too soon, this book is the first to explain in understandable language what the politicians, economists, think tanks and lobbyists are talking about when they argue over the federal budget.
Scott Bittle, an award-winning journalist, is executive editor of PublicAgenda.org, a public affairs site twice-nominated for the prestigious Webby Award. Jean Johnson is executive vice president of Public Agenda who has written on public opinion and current issues for dozens of publications ranging from Education Week to USA Today.
