Panel urged to revise 1977 budget amid weak economy
Congressional Budget Office director Alice Rivlin told the Joint Economic Committee that without spending cuts or tax relief the 1977 outlook shows growth under five percent and unemployment above seven percent. Deficits would rise to 55 60 billion dollars, and tax receipts would fall 5 10 billion, with surpluses unlikely until the early 1980s. Paul O Neill of the Ford OMB noted possible tax cuts even with satisfactory growth.
