What is the National Debt?

Sunday, February 7th, 2010

The National Debt is the overall debt of the federal government – the difference between the federal government’s liabilities (mostly outstanding bonds) and its “net recorded assets” (mostly those assets which yield interest, profits or dividends). Thus it measures, on balance, how much the federal government owes to creditors.

Lifestyle vs. Reality

Wednesday, October 14th, 2009

The boomer generation is tremendously optimistic about the future and their retirement years. However, are they prepared? As it turns out, not really.

A Forrester Research study in the US found that three in 10 boomers between 51 – 61 haven’t started any financial planning for retirement. In US, Strategic Guidance found that only 15% of its citizens felt fully prepared financially.

There is a new reality for boomers going into retirement.

Two thirds of boomers will be carrying debt into retirement rather than paying it off beforehand.

Instead of savings, real estate accounts for a great deal of boomer household wealth. This may lead to insufficient cash balances from which to draw on for retirement income.

Almost 45% believe they’ll be helping their children financially for the next seven to 10 years.

More than half of those surveyed don’t expect an inheritance. Their parents are living longer – and depleting the assets.

Reduction in Taxes

 Reduction in Taxes

While traditional theory would insist that taxes be increased in order to balance the increases in government spending referred to above, Keynesian theory argues that tax increases would only depress spending by consumers and businesses, worsening the recession.
Thus, taxes should not be increased during a recession; indeed, if anything, they should be reduced, so as to help raise the level of aggregate demand. The most popular policy of this type is the personal income tax cut, intended to increase personal disposable income and consumer spending, although temporary sales tax cuts have also been used for this purpose. To promote higher levels of business investment spending, various types of tax reductions may be used, including cuts in corporate income (profits) taxes and increased capital cost allowances, which permit businesses to depreciate assets more quickly, thus reducing their taxable income an
