Pathways to fiscal reform in the United States

The severe fiscal problems that the United States faces have been the focus of much attention in recent years, and several groups have proposed ambitious plans for fiscal reforms that would address the deficit and debt problems facing the nation through various combinations of expenditure reductions and revenue-increasing tax reforms.

The chapters in this book examine the pathways that tax and expenditure reform might take if the fiscal problems in the United States are to be successfully addressed.
