Its FY2012!

Technically, it started Oct. 1.

But I assume no budget was passed and the government is being funded by a C.R. right?

So best guess at budget deficit for 2012?

$1+ trillion is mine. Most likely close to $1.5 with the economy slowing down and maybe headed for recession part 2.

Which case the Dems will scream like babies for their chance to achieve 2+ trillion. Can't forget the stimulus. If their government run economy is deflating, they have to spend even more to prop it back up for another few years.

Dems will push for 2 trillion. Go big or go home!

Time to restructure the taxes so that anybody can make what they want but nobody takes home more than 50 times minimum wage. The extra can be split between the government and charities that maintain some high ratio of service to income.

Does CR stand for Change Request? There's something mildly amusing about a government being run on the basis of a change request.
