Hmmm, I thought that the earth was going to stop spinning and the doors to Hell would open up and swallow us because we allowed our elected officials to let us keep some of our money. can't wait to see how moveon.frog spins this one.

Reuben Gant Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 Good news: the deficit for the fiscal year may be 77 billion less than expected Bad news: the deficit for the fiscal year will still be 350 billion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any guesses on what thier headlines will be??? 380393[/snapback] "In a speech to the American Enterprise Institute, the former Federal Reserve governor said if the increased tax collections continue along with spending controls, the government`s budget deficit will be reduced below its projected level." Ummm..... Richio, do you ever actually read the articles you link to? All this one actually says is: If, Then Maybe, We Think.... And then goes on to say... "Earlier this year, the White House projected a 427-billion-dollar shortfall for the fiscal year that ends September 30th. Some private analysts have projected the deficit will actually be closer to 350-billion-dollars." Yep, still the worst deficit in US History, but not quite as bad as we thought it would be... PS: Spending Controls????? This Congress?????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is predicting that the defecit will be below previous projections if the increase in tax collections and spending controls are put in place. Yes sir, that's some real proof that current tax cut policies are working. Of course he doesn't offer any numbers or real data to back that up (non-partisan numbers would be great). Nonetheless, I'm ready to declare victory - if only we could remember where we put that "Mission Accomplished" banner... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
