Reconciliation

Today, Ezra argued against policymakers? focus on discretionary spending, Brad looked at how a Balanced Budget Amendment would send fiscal policy to the courts, and Suzy explained how the CBO became so important. Here?s what we missed:

1) Britain?s austerity measures are almost causing a double-dip recession and threatening its debt rating.

2) Congressional experts say this is the Worst. Congress. Ever.

3) Jonathan Chait is quite right that ?pointing out the hilarious lies of the Wall Street Journal editorial page? is his job.

4) NPR on the dropout crisis.

5) Larry Summers on academic economics and practice.

Song of the Day: Brian Eno?s ?King?s Lead Hat.?
