Slide 10

Economic/Demographic Environment Has Changed

Short run economic cycle has merged with long run demographic cycle.

We have entered the Age of Entitlement—economic growth in the next 25 years will be about half what it was in the past 25.

State revenue growth will slow while spending pressures will accelerate.

This is a national/global issue.

Slide 11

Minnesota Faces a Fiscal Trap

The issue is a long run, structural one— short run solutions will not solve the problem.

Trend growth alone will not be sufficient. Fundamental changes are necessary.

Revenue growth will slow. Efforts to increase it will be met with resistance.

Spending pressures will increase driven largely by issues of aging and health.

State spending will shift its focus from education, infrastructure and higher education to care and support of the aging.

General Fund Spending Outlook, presentation to the Budget Trends Commission, August 2008, Dybdal, Reitan and Broat

Slide 17

How do we get out of this fiscal trap?

Revenue growth will depend increasingly on per capita economic growth.

Future economic growth will depend increasingly on increasing productivity and less on labor force size.

This plays to Minnesota’s historic strength.
