Listed here are three plans to balance the budget and avoid bankruptcy and catastrophe. The current Budget deficit is $544b a year.

1. Pass Simpson-Bowles, which would save about $250b a year for 10-years.

2. Pass the one-cent solution, which would save $390b a year, current 2016 outlays $3.9T & current revenue $3.4T

3. Pass the Financial Transaction Tax, similar to the EU to reduce/punish derivatives and risky financial instruments, as well as keep more money available for capital projects instead of high-frequency trading.
