[Trust but Verify]

These 'studies' aren't worth the paper they're printed on. didn't we just have 'projected' surpluses of trillions of dollars 3 years ago? Viola! They aren't going to happen.

And if you beleive these numbers, what difference is $350 billion going to make???

.....what difference is $350 billion going to make???......

Agreed. Not much.

I think it again boils down to "Dynamic versus Static" computation of the projected numbers that go out far enough as to be unreliable and unrealistic.

However, I wish there was a bit more budget CUTTING in the latest budget though.............ala Rush's first hour yesterday, that I thought of starting a Vanity Thread on.
