Alan Simpson on the August 2 Debt Ceiling and Deficit legislation of August 2, 2011
01/16/2009
Alan Simpson of the Simpson-Bowles Commission talks about the debt panel or super-committee's task in coming up with $1.2 trillion in savings by the end of 2011. Simpson says the work of that committe will be similiar to the work he and Bowles engaged in. An enormous effort will go into clearing misperceptions and preconceived notions. He says there are only so many ways of coming up with savings and everything has to be touched to get to the goal, given that the U.S. borrows 39 cents of every dollar it spends.

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.
