The Budget Director Leaves: Changing Widgets At The White House

White House Budget Director Peter Orszag is about to resign, perhaps to get married and have a less hectic life. He will certainly get a job in the private sector that will pay him several times what he makes today. The budgets and the results of the government’s spending have not been popular. Orszag, like most White House workers in all administrations, may simply be tired from the 80 hour weeks and treks up the hill to be cross-examined by Congress.
