[QUOTE]Originally posted by Omega: [QB] <a href="http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/budget/fy2002/msr07.html">As you wish.</a> I refer you to table eighteen of the above-linked page. "MID?SESSION BASELINE TOTALS". It states that the 2001 surplus at time of publication was $157.8 billion. This was published in August, so it was obviously before the terrorist attack. Thus subtract... what, $50bil, now? Still, over $100 billion this year alone. Admittedly, the probable recession we entered this morning may affect tax receipts to some degree, but considering that this plan was intended to be implemented over a number of years under any circumstances, this year's surplus doesn't need to be enough to pay for the entire program anyway. Even though it may well be. [/QB][/QUOTE]
