Marc Goldwein认为美国目前虽然没有陷入债务危机,但正朝着这个方向发展。高利率、巨额债务和即将耗尽的信托基金都预示着未来的经济困境。他认为解决债务问题需要多方面努力,首先是控制医疗保健成本,其次是清理税法,消除浪费的税收优惠,并可能需要适度提高税收。他还强调,美国不需要偿还全部债务,只需要控制债务增长速度,使其不快于经济增长速度。他建议将债务与GDP之比稳定在经济规模左右,然后逐步降低到60%左右。他还认为,应对国家紧急情况,例如战争或疫情,应该对所有人征收战争税或类似税收,以分担成本。他认为拜登政府的许多政策加剧了通货膨胀,而《通胀削减法案》对通货膨胀的影响则相对中性。他还讨论了国会预算办公室的预测准确性问题,以及如何改进立法语言、限制政府权力和设置上限和触发器来提高其预测的准确性。
