For all doubters out there, here is proof from the Department of the Treasury ( National Debt) and the Congressional Budget Office (US budget deficit) that the deficit is paid by the Department of the Treasury... Where they get the money isn't clear
2009 US budget deficit.... -$1.412.5 trillion overspent
2008 US budget deficit....... -$458.5 billion overspent
2009 National Debt..... +$1.412.5 trillion added to National Debt
2008 National Debt..... +$458.5 billion added to National Debt
As you can see the minus numbers of the 2008 and 2009 budget deficit are the same as the plus numbers added to the 2008 and 2009 National Debt. Proving that there was no carry over budget deficit, and if it evens up then, it evens up in 2011. Why does Congress make such a big deal about voting to raise the debt when it's already a done deal?
