Topic: Economic Stimulus
Total Allocated Cost: $862,000,000,000
It seems fitting that on April 15th, "Tax Day", we make a tax calculator available for our subscribers to calculate their share of the tax burden created by the Obama Administrations economic stimulus plan. The very administration that claimed then and still claims now that there would be no tax increase on middle class Americans.
In February 2009, President Obama signed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. In early 2009, the Congressional Budget Office estimated that the Recovery Act's combined spending and tax provisions would cost $787 billion. In early 2010, CBO updated its estimate of the cost of the Recovery Act. It now estimates that the Recovery Act will cost $75 billion more than originally estimated - CBO now anticipates that the 2009 Stimulus will increase deficits by $862 billion over ten years.
