Peter Orzag, the Director of U.S. Office of Management and Budget, has launched a weblog to keep Americans posted on how our nation is doing financially. He posted his first blog yesterday under the title, "Discipline, Efficiency, Prosperity." His latest blog is "Clearing up a misconception: "tax hikes during a recession?"
Whatever people may think about the President's budget and his desire to let Bush's tax breaks for the wealthy expire, it's great to have an administration conduct its business in the open and address the American public directly.
It is also good to have full budget figures and information made easily accessible to the public. Here's a link to the President's fiscal year 2010 budget.
