Definitely think this is a step in the right direction.

Unfortunately, it looks like this solution does not address the balance sheet side of the equation, which is where most towns are in dire straights (even if they don't admit it as they have more latitude in not recognizing the future costs of say pensions than corporations do). Until people have true transparency into this area, it will be hard to make good decisions as an electorate.

Again, think its a great step forward...on a very long road
