  1. Unbalanced budgeting

  3. Unbalanced on budgets

    New budget proposals this week from influential members of the House Republican and Senate Democratic leadership are the stuff of political caricatures. House Budget Committee Chairman Paul D. Ryan (R-Wis.), last year's Republican nominee for vice president, reprised the spending-cut talking points from his failed campaign with little change and no apparent irony. Senate Budget Committee Chairwoman Patty Murray (D-Wash.), meanwhile, offered the outlines of a budget that increases taxes <em>and</em> spending, while doing little more than buying time on the entitlement programs at the heart of Washington's long-term problems. Neither approach offers a realistic way forward. Instead, they give Republicans and Democrats yet another arena in which to fight their ideological battles over the size and scope of government.

  13. L.A.'s budget challenge

    In the weeks leading up to last Tuesday's election, voters in Los Angeles heard conflicting messages from city officials and candidates about Proposition A, a proposed half-cent increase in the sales tax. Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, City Council President Herb Wesson and Police Chief Charlie Beck all argued that the city desperately needed the tax hike to avoid damaging cuts in public safety and other services. The candidates vying to take Villaraigosa's place in City Hall, however, insisted that the increase was the wrong way to solve the city's fiscal problems. That may have had more to do with politics than policy, but their view prevailed: Voters rejected the tax hike by a margin of 55% to 45%.
