Michael A. Peterson releases a statement on the Congressional Budget Office's budget and economic outlook.
Each year, some of the revenue the federal government collects comes from various taxes. In 2012, taxpayers paid almost $2.5 trillion, which the government used to partially fund $3.5 trillion worth of spending on Social Security, health care, and other programs in areas such as defense and education. The remainder of spending was funded through deficits.
For the ninth consecutive month, American citizens remain extremely concerned about our nation’s fiscal challenges, according to the Peter G. Peterson Foundation’s latest Fiscal Confidence Index.
