Part of this mission is accomplished by publishing the Community Development Investment Review. The Review brings together experts to write about various community development investment topics including: Finance—new tools, techniques, or approaches that increase the volume, lower the cost, lower the risk, or in any way make investments in low-income communities more attractive; Collaborations—ways in which different groups can pool resources and expertise to address the capital needs of low-income communities; Public Policy—analysis of how government and public policy influence community development finance options; Best Practices—showcase innovative projects, people, or institutions that are improving the investment opportunities in low-income areas. The goal of the Review is to bridge the gap between theory and practice and to enlist as many viewpoints as possible—government, nonprofits, financial institutions, and beneficiaries. As a leading economist in the community development field describes it, the Review provides “ideas for people who get things done.” For submission guidelines and themes of upcoming issues contact David Erickson, Federal Community Development INVESTMENT REVIEW Reserve Bank of San Francisco, 101 Market Street, Mailstop 215, San Francisco, California, 94105-1530, [email protected].

An Assessment of the Proposals of the President’s Commission to Strengthen Social Security Peter A. Diamond and Peter R. Orszag NBER Working Paper No. 9097 August 2002 ABSTRACT The President’s Commission to Strengthen Social Security proposed three reform plans. Two, analyzed here, restore actuarial balance in the absence of individual accounts. One achieves this balance solely through benefit reductions. The other uses new dedicated revenue to cover one-third of the actuarial deficit, reducing benefits to close the rest. Both plans cut disability and young survivor benefits in step with retirement benefits, while bolstering benefits for long-career low earners and surviving spouses with low benefits. The plans both include voluntary individual accounts that replace part of the scaled-back Social Security system. Payroll taxes are diverted to the accounts and one of the plans also requires a (subsidized) add-on contribution for those choosing accounts. Under both models, any payroll tax deposited in an individual account is also recorded in a “liability account” for the worker.

    Orszag to Depart OMB Director Post | 1

    Orszag to Depart OMB Director Post | 1 Orszag to Depart OMB Director Post By Editor Test Wed, Jun 30, 2010 “Basically, the OMB Director is a brutal job and subject to quick burnout," commented one political blogger. Peter R. Orszag, who brought a strong retirement perspective to his job as budget director in the Obama administration, will leave the White House later this summer, several news organizations reported last week. “Basically, the OMB Director is a brutal job and subject to quick burnout. I wouldn’t read any more into this than that,” wrote David Dayen on the newsblog, firedoglake, by way of explanation. Orszag’s impending departure was first rumored last April. According to the Washington Post, likely candidates for appointment to the post of director of the Office of Management and Budget include (in order of probability): Laura D. Tyson, former chair of the Council of Economic Advisers in the Clinton administration who currently teaches at Berkeley’s Haas School of Business. John Berry, head of the Office of Personnel Management. Rob Nabors, who served as Orszag’s deputy before joining White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel’s office to focus on special projects. Gene Sperling, a senior adviser to Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner and a top economic official in the Clinton administration. Robert Greenstein, director of the Center for Budget and Policy Priorities. He served on the Bipartisan Commission on Entitlement and Tax Reform during the Clinton administration. Byron Dorgan, North Dakota’s retiring Democratic senator. Jeffrey Liebman, an economist with expertise on poverty, pensions and Social Security.

After Tufts, he spent more than five years developing international economic policy in the Clinton Administration, where he served in the White House and the U.S. Department of Commerce. In 2002, Greenblatt co-founded Ethos Water with his business partner, Peter Thum, to help children around the world gain access to clean water. Launched in the U.S., half the profits of Ethos bottled water directly support humanitarian water programs in developing countries. Ethos was sold to Starbucks Co!ee Company in 2005. Greenblatt managed the bottled water business as vice president of global consumer products for the company and, as a board member of the Starbucks Foundation, helped develop the principles to guide water-related investments around the world. To- day, Ethos is sold in more than 6,000 Starbucks locations, and it has achieved record performance for the company in bottled water sales. Through a strategic partnership with PepsiCo, Ethos will expand its V@SDQdistribution to an additional 100,000 more retail outlets across North America in 2008. Ethos will invest more than $10 million through 2010 RNBH@K to bring clean water to children and communities in need around DMSQDOQDMDTQRGHO the world. It is already doing so in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. In @MCSGD August 2007, Discourse’s Padden Murphy sat down with Jonathan VNQKCV@SDQBQHRHR ENQGreenblatt to talk about Ethos, the world water crisis, and social entrepreneurship.
