Where Does the Money Go? Rev Ed: Your Guided Tour to the Federal Budget Crisis
1. Summarize the book in about three pages—what are the major topics, ideas, arguments covered in the book? This is not the place to comment on how well the authors address the book’s purpose or major arguments of the book—use this section to explain by way of well-developed paragraphs what the authors think contributes to the US budget and debt crisis. Use the data offered by the authors to support your explanation.
2. Criticize the author’s work in about one page—what was not covered or was not clear in the presentation? Conversely, what are the strengths of the book?
3. Offer some conclusions and recommendations in about a page–what is the relevance of the book to budgeting practice and this course? What did you learn that helps you understand budgeting and the US financial crisis?
Using subtitles for the sections explained in 1 through 3 above would help organize your review.
