Economic Policy

What is the process to develop an economic policy that provides services and sustainability?

Looking at the process to develop an economic policy we need to dig deep into what this really is. The economic policy should have an impact on natural resources, like ecosystems and the environment. This would provide sustainability for the stock and flow of benefits and costs that come from these assets. Another thing that creates services and sustainability is the distribution of costs and benefits amongst people. In other words and economic policy is put in place by having each citizen pay taxes. If Americans did not pay taxes how would we pay our teachers to teach our children? How will Americans receive welfare or government assistance? How will be pay for street repairs or city clean-up? This is why I look at the economic policy as social welfare. I change my mind many times when I think of our health care for example. At times I do not think it is fair that there are illegal immigrants that U.S. citizens are paying for their health bills through taxes when that tax money should be used for seniors, or hard working citizens that have lost their insurance and benefits. This is why we need to develop a policy that creates sustainability by distributing taxes evenly and using taxes for our schools and unemployment befits and other benefits for the people.
How will the new budget plan discussed this week help the American people and how will it hurt American people?
I have attached a video that talks about medicare that is a HOT topic in the 2012 budget cut.
