The Way Forward

• Reexamine the base—question existing programs, policies and activities

• Implement new accounting and reporting approaches and new budget control mechanisms for considering the impact of spending and tax policies and decisions over the long term

• Develop new metrics for measuring the impact of policies and decisions over the long term (e.g., key national indicators to measure our Nation’s position and progress over time and in relation to other countries)
