Secondly,reducingthenationaldebtrequiresspecificanddi-rect action. During one of the commission’s hearing at whichseveraleconomicplanswerepresented,aneconomistwasaskedwhichplanhewouldchoose.Heansweredbypointing tooneparticular plan, but then said, “The truth is that any of theseplanswillhelp, somebetter thanothers,butanyoneof theseplanswillworkbetterthatdoingnothing.” Sadly, that is exactly what our congress and the presidenthavedoneoverthatlastseveralyears-nothing.Thesingleworstthingthathashappenedisthatcongresshasnotpassedabud-get.SenatorCraposaidthat,whileCongressregularlyfindswaysaroundbudgets,notsettingonehasmadeitalmostimpossibletostopexcessspending.Theonlytooltolimitspendingrightnowisthedebtceiling,atoolmostpoliticiansareunwillingtouse. Eventually, if Congress continues doing nothing about thedebt,thebondmarketwillcorrecttheproblem.Currently,theFederal Reserve is buying a large percentage of our nation’sbonds,butwestillrelyheavilyonothercountrieslikeChinatofinanceourdebt.TheFederalReservehasalsobeenkeepingin-terestratesextremelylow,mainlybecauseanincreaseininterestrateswouldmakeitimpossiblefortheU.S.toborrowmoney.

Whilenotunanimous,theBowlesSimpsonCommissioncameto the conclusion that three things are needed to reduce thedebt:One,abudgetthatreducesspendingandincreasesrevenue(thetargetis4trillion-3inreducedspendingand1inincreaserevenue);Two,reformtheIRSbysimplifyingthetaxcodeandmakingitmoreequitabletoeveryone;andthree,reformentitle-mentprogramstomakethemsustainable. Over60%of thecommissionmembers (Democrats andRe-publicans) support this plan, but in order to send the plan toCongress they need a supermajority (2/3). Senator Crapo saidthereisgrowingsupportforthisplan,especiallywithrecentre-portsbytheCBO(CongressionalBudgetOffice)that indicatethatouryearlydeficitwillincreaseoverthenexttenyearsfrom500billiontoover1trillion(mostlyduetotheAffordableCareAct). At the end of the meeting, Senator Crapo shared what an-othereconomistssaidtothecommission,“IfCongresswillmakeapositivemovetowardsreducingourdebt,itwillhaveaworldwideeffectontheeconomy,the likesofwhichwehaveneverseenbefore.”
