Where Does the Money Go? - Your Guided Tour to the Federal Budget Crisis

"A book that manages to be entertaining and irreverent while serving as an informative primer on a subject that is crucial to the future of all Americans." -- New York Times Before you vote in a national election, you should ask yourself: Where Does the Money Go? The acclaimed and essential work by Scott Biddle and Jean Johnson has been updated to reflect the recent financial crisis and the sweeping legislation passed by the Obama administration in its first years. Nonpartisan and well-balanced, Where Does the Money Go? is a candid, eye-opening, and delightfully irreverent guide to the ongoing federal budget crisis that breaks-down into plain English exactly what the Fat Cats in Washington, D.C. are arguing about.
