Italy is considering amending their constitution to require a balanced budget. She would join Switzerland and Germany as the third nation to do so. Unfortunately, for Italy, it rather like organizing a fire department during the burning of rome.
At least, the US Congress will vote on a BBA this year, as required in the debt ceiling negotiations. Probably won't pass, but we will have a list of those who voted it down for consideration in the November 2012 elections.
