Marc Goldwein
Marc Goldwein is the Senior Vice President and Senior Policy Director at the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget (CRFB), where he has become Washington's most-quoted referee of how much the federal government can afford. A two-degree Johns Hopkins economist who once ran track for the Blue Jays, he helped staff the Simpson-Bowles Fiscal Commission and the 2011 'Super Committee,' teaches economics on the side, and now spends his days scoring the price tag of nearly every major bill and campaign promise. He talks fast, deploys statistics faster, and has made a career of telling both parties the same unwelcome thing: the math does not add up.
