Since so many of us seem interested in the issues of deficit and debt, I thought someone may be able to give me some insight (not incite) on the book "Running on Empty" by Peter Peterson (Nixon Secretary of Commerce).

Has anyone read it? I am considering getting a copy.

Pete Peterson is a must read. He heads the Concord Coalition, co-founded Blackstone Group, and is worth a couple Billion. His foundation is run by David Walker, former head of GAO, and probably the most outspoken person on the subject of debt.
