MY VIEW: David Stockman

In Sunday's New York Times, CRFB board member David Stockman wrote an op-ed discussing the recent budget proposals from President Obama and House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan and how "the resulting squabble is not only deepening the fiscal stalemate, but also bringing us dangerously close to class war." He writes,

"So the Ryan plan worsens our trillion-dollar structural deficit and the Obama plan amounts to small potatoes, at best. Worse, we are about to descend into class war because the Obama plan picks on the rich when it should be pushing tax increases for all, while the Ryan plan attacks the poor when it should be addressing middle-class entitlements and defense."
