comparison of their policies for the US Economy.

Hillary ClintonClinton's economic platform, though aggressive, is well-thought out, detailed and grounded in many of the current economic programs. She is the only candidate that has stated a commitment to a balanced budget. Since the budget deficit is a large contributor to the declining dollar, high oil prices and inflation, its elimination is critical to the long-term health of the U.S. economy. For these reasons, Clinton's platform would be most beneficial to the economy.
Barack ObamaObama's economic platform is visionary, yet does not give enough detail to determine if it is feasible. Without a commitment to a balanced budget, it could be detrimental to the economy.
