Nixon Trouble Is In Red Ink
The budget deficit looming up to 16 billion dollars shapes Nixon's next year with a Democratic Congress. Washington faces hard choices on spending cuts or tax hikes as unemployment sits near a seven year high and inflation risks remain low. The administration weighs draft reform, welfare overhaul, student aid, antipoverty reach, and health insurance while revenue sharing faces Democratic resistance. Budget efforts may push tax moves, declines in exemptions, and possible value added taxes as political factors loom ahead of the 1972 race. Several new governors and legislature majorities add pressure to aid local governments while Mills resists revenue sharing. Kennedy signals possible tax changes if deficits stay large.
