The Balanced Budget Amendment in the U.S. Congress in August 2011
07/14/2011
Critics say the balanced budget amendment would prevent the use of countercyclical policies in a downturn like the present one facing the U.S. economy. Because of the tendency of politicians to avoid difficult decisions and "kick the can down the road," it serves to focus attention on making the cuts in spending, including tax expenditures, that can help reduce the deficit to sustainable levels.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
