CBO Sees Deficit Narrowing to $642 Billion
Keywords:
The U.S. Congressional Budget Office (CBO) revised estimates in May 2013 show the U.S. debt to GDP ratio in 2013 at about 75.1%, coming down slightly in the next couple of years and then rising to about 73.6% by 2023. The U.S. deficit for fiscal 2013 is estimated to be about 4% of GDP, down from 7% in 2012 and 10.1% in 2009. The deficit is estimated at 3.4% of GDP in fiscal 2014 and 2.1% of GDP in 2015. Spending levels increase closer to the 2020s as more people reach retirement age. Lower projections on Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security spending have reduced the cumulative deficits over the next decade.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
