Sumario:"The federal government is running large budget deficits, spending too much, and heading toward a financial crisis. Federal spending has soared under President George W. Bush, and the costs of programs for the elderly are set to balloon in coming years." "In Downsizing the Federal Government, Chris Edwards provides a comprehensive plan to avert a crisis by cutting the budget. His detailed research identifies more than 100 federal programs that should be terminated, transferred to the states, or privatized in order to balance the budget and save hundreds of billions of dollars." "The book discusses the systematic causes of wasteful spending, and it overflows with examples of programs that are obsolete and mismanaged."--Jacket.
