More money
Posted on May 5th, 2005 by uruloki
I wish politicians would read the correct conclusion into the fact that they got more money than they expected.
The Treasury Department this week reported there would be a $54 billion swing from projected deficit to surplus in the April-to-June quarter, after an unanticipated gush of tax payments poured into the Treasury before the April 15 deadline. That prompted private forecasters to lower their deficit projections for the fiscal year that ends in September.
Too bad all they’ll read this as is an excuse to spend more.
