Steve Hanke(@steve_hanke):My article in @FortuneMagazine with David M. Walker, former Comptroller General of the US: "Fiscal responsibility needs to be a priority in the lame-duck session, when the outgoing Congress meets after the election and before the new Congress takes office in January. Congress must pass the bipartisan Fiscal Commission Act (H.R. 3289) before it adjourns to set the table in Congress for tough spending, revenue, and other choices in the future."
