La super commission, surnomm\u00e9e Super Congr\u00e8s, d\u00e9sign\u00e9e \u00e0 la suite de l’accord sur la dette entre le gouvernement US et le Congr\u00e8s en ao\u00fbt dernier pour d\u00e9tailler des r\u00e9ductions budg\u00e9taires de $1.200 milliards, semble devoir annoncer son \u00e9chec. Cette affaire est particuli\u00e8rement importante pour le Pentagone<\/a> puisque, en cas d’\u00e9chec, il est pr\u00e9vu une r\u00e9duction budg\u00e9taire automatique de $500 milliards sur 5 ans pour la d\u00e9fense. (Actuellement la dette du gouvernement US d\u00e9passe les $15.000 milliards.)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tPlusieurs sources indiquent un \u00e9chec probable pour la date butoir du 23 novembre. The Independent<\/em> du 21 novembre 2011<\/a> \u00e9crit notamment :<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00abThe committee attempting to craft a bipartisan solution to America’s debt crisis is likely to bow to the inevitable today by declaring failure to reach consensus on how best to restore public finances.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbWith a deal needing to be ratified by Wednesday, the Super Committee of six Democrats and six Republicans has until this morning to break its deadlock. Failure will trigger $1.2 trillion in cuts to public spending. Half will come from the defence budget, which Republicans are anxious to protect; the other half will affect programmes beloved of Democrats.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbNeither side has yet been prepared to compromise core values: Republicans are opposed to tax increases; Democrats dislike spending cuts. Meanwhile, the national debt, now $15 trillion, continues to rise by $1.4 trillion a year. With federal taxes at 14 per cent of GDP, their lowest in modern history, polls indicate that three-quarters of Americans favour a compromise that will see the defecit cut through an even mixture of tax increases and cuts.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tTruthout.org<\/em> d\u00e9taille, ce 20 novembre 2011<\/a>, plusieurs sources et d\u00e9clarations allant dans le m\u00eame sens d’une probabilit\u00e9 d’\u00e9chec. (Ce 20 novembre 2011<\/a> \u00e9galement, CNN a annonc\u00e9 qu’un membre de l’\u00e9quipe travaillant pour les parlementaires de la super commission avait officieusement d\u00e9clar\u00e9 que l’\u00e9chec \u00e9tait une chose acquise.)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00abSen. Patty Murray (D-WA), the Democratic co-chair of the congressional super committee, said this morning on CNN’s State of the Union that the super committee charged with crafting a deficit reduction plan remains stuck on the Bush tax cuts.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbThere is one sticking divide, and that is the issue of what I call shared sacrifice, where everybody contributes in a very challenging time for our country, Murray told CNN’s Candy Crowley on State of the Union. That’s the Bush tax cuts, and making sure that any kind of package includes everybody coming to the table and the wealthiest of Americans, those who earn over a million dollars every year, have to share, too. And that line in the sand, we haven’t seen any Republicans willing to cross yet, Murray said.<\/em> []<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbPreviously on Fox News, Murray’s Republican counterpart Rep. Jeb Hensarling (R-TX) attacked Democrats on the committee for failing to negotiate about the privatization of Medicare<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \n dedefensa.org<\/em><\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Le Super Congr\u00e8s : \u00e9chec probable mercredi La super commission, surnomm\u00e9e Super Congr\u00e8s, d\u00e9sign\u00e9e \u00e0 la suite de l’accord sur la dette entre le gouvernement US et le Congr\u00e8s en ao\u00fbt dernier pour d\u00e9tailler des r\u00e9ductions budg\u00e9taires de $1.200 milliards, semble devoir annoncer son \u00e9chec.
