According to estimates from the Congressional Budget Office, the government will once again run deficits that exceed $1 trillion in 2012, this time reaching $1.1 trillion. The economic future of this nation is “uncertain”, at best.
“CBO expects the economic recovery to continue at a modest pace for the remainder of calendar year 2012, with real (inflation-adjusted) GDP growing at an annual rate of about 2¼ percent in the second half of the year, compared with a rate of about 1¾ percent in the first half.”
