US Deficit for FY11

On October 14, 2011, Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner and OMB Director Jacob Lew announced that the federal deficit for FY11 was $1.299 trillion. Here are the numbers, including total receipts, total outlays, and deficit compared with the numbers projected in the federal budget published in February 2011:

    We had some other federal deficit estimates in our 2012 govt. budget and spending forecast-- http://govpro.com/news/government-spending-2012/

    I have a 2012 ranking of states in per-capita govt. spending—would be delighted to send a link, if interested. The ranking has some surprises.
    Here’s our previous ranking: Texas tops list of states with low per-capita spending
