Budget Deficit Forecast Rises to 590 Billion, CBCO Says
The Congressional Budget Office on August 23 forecast the current year deficit at 590 billion dollars, up one third from last year's 438 billion. The 2015 deficit was the smallest in eight years, with rising deficits expected over the next decade due to Social Security and Medicare costs, though lower interest rates may reduce debt financing needs.
