Budget and Economic Outlook Fiscal Years 2004-2013

This is one of a series of reports on the state of the budget & the economy that the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) issues each January. The baseline budget projections that CBO provides are based on the assumption that current laws & policies remain unchanged as well as on various estimates & assumptions about how the economy will behave & government programs will operate. Such projections are always uncertain, but in 2003, the uncertainty is magnified, so estimates of budgetary outcomes must be interpreted cautiously. Chapters: The Budget Outlook; The Economic Outlook; The Revenue Outlook; The Spending Outlook; & The Uncertainty of Budget Projections. Dozens of charts & tables.Bogusz, Christine is the author of 'Budget and Economic Outlook Fiscal Years 2004-2013' with ISBN 9780756732509 and ISBN 0756732506.
