The morning after the President’s State of the Union address Bloomberg Government and Bloomberg Businessweek hosted an event examining the business and political implications of the programs, proposals and issues identified in the speech.
Bloomberg Government sponsored a distinguished panel including Senator Mark Warner (D-VA), Senator Bob Corker (R-TN), Governor John Engler, now president of the Business Roundtable and Dr. Alice Rivlin, a Senior Fellow at the Brookings Institution and renowned economist and budget expert. Al Hunt, Executive Washington Editor for Bloomberg News, moderated the panel. This panel reviewed the economic, business, employment and budgetary consequences stemming from the President’s annual address.
The panelists agreed that the number one problem facing the economy and businesses is the federal budget deficit and the economic uncertainty that stems from it. Senator Corker emphasized that the best way to create jobs and to grow the economy is to tackle the deficit. All panelists agreed that political leadership needs to work out solutions for entitlement reform, tax reform and overall spending.
