I.O.U.S.A: One Nation. Under Stress. In Debt

I.O.U.S.A: One Nation. Under Stress. In Debt

The United States has been spending its way deeper and deeper into the red, and saddling future generations with the messâ€”but who's paying attention?
To answer that question, the companion book to the critically acclaimed documentary I.O.U.S.A. talks with some of the most revered voices in the nation, including Warren Buffett; former Treasury Secretaries Paul Oâ€™Neill and Robert Rubin; Pete Peterson, CEO of The Blackstone Group; Congressman Ron Paul (R-Texas); and bestselling Empire of Debt author Bill Bonner.
Armed with these interviews, historical references, and damning statistics, the book takes a lively and entertaining romp through the four deficits the nation faces: the budget deficit, the personal savings deficit, the trade deficitâ€”and what former U.S. Comptroller General David Walker, who resigned abruptly in 2008 over Congressâ€™s lack of action, calls the â€œleadership deficitâ€ in Washington.
Defiantly non-partisan, the empowering solutions outlined in these pages are a must-read for any American who wants to help change â€œbusiness-as-usualâ€ in Washington as a new administration heads towards the Oval Office. â€œWe the Peopleâ€ can get our politicians to stop spending, promote responsible economic programs, and hand our children and grandchildren the secure future they deserve.
