Is it fair to blame skyrocketing deficits on an inability to curtail spending? How-and why-are taxing and spending decidedly separate political processes? Emphasizing budgetary politics rather than economic theories, Patrick Fisher offers a clear, thorough overview of how money flows through our government coffers. A welcome realism pervades Fisher's analysis of budget making, and numerous case studies of events in recent budget politics bring his arguments to life. The result is a balanced wealth of material for classroom discussion---About the book p.193. 000434118 650_0 $$aTaxation$$zUnited States. 000434118 650_0 $$aGovernment spending policy$$zUnited States. 000434118 650_0 $$aBudget deficits$$zUnited States. 000434118 85200 $$bgen$$hHJ2381$$i.F57$$i2009 000434118 85641 $$3Table of contents only$$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip0828/2008040203.html 000434118 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:434118$$pGLOBAL_SET 000434118 980__ $$aBIB 000434118 980__ $$aBOOK
