Obama Says U.S. Long-Term Debt Load ‘Unsustainable’No kidding Hussein .... welcome to reality. And yet .... The Obama administration revised its own budget estimates and raised the projected deficit for this year to a record $1.84 trillion, up 5 percent from the February estimate. The revision for the 2010 fiscal year estimated the deficit at $1.26 trillion, up 7.4 percent from the February figure. The White House Office of Management and Budget also projected next year’s budget will end up at $3.59 trillion, compared with the $3.55 trillion it estimated previously. Two weeks ago, the president proposed $17 billion in budget cuts but Obama is seeking an $81 billion increase in other spending. MacTheKnife's blog | login to post comments |
