“Even with Monday’s good fiscal news, the government is expected to run a $1 trillion deficit in fiscal year 2012, which began Oct. 1. Through the first seven months, the deficit was already $721 billion, though that was substantially below the $870 billion deficit at the same point in 2011.”

So I don’t see how this makes a surplus when you have already spent more than you took in you can not just look at one month you have to look at the whole enchilada

If you want a great headline you do.

Reminds me of my poor sister that would come home to her husband with another armful of fancy clothing and show off all the deals and savings she got.
