The Center for Data Analysis Stimulus Bill Tables and Charts
November 22, 2009

These tables and charts present the Obama Administration’s stimulus bill spending in one easy-to-use spreadsheet, a format not offered by the Administration at Recovery.gov. The added transparency created by the one-spreadsheet format is useful in understanding how billions of dollars of slated stimulus bill outlays are being spent and will be spent. Visitors to the Web site are encouraged to run their own calculations using Microsoft Excel or other software programs on the data. There are two charts and, we think, enough data for Center for Data Analysis Web site users to make many more.

The U.S. Economic Outlook
A PowerPoint presentation by William Beach on the implications of mounting federal debt for the debt paying generation. Total debt is expected to grow from $5.8 trillion in 2008 to $11 trillion by 2019. That is 41% of GDP in 2008 becoming 82% of GDP by 2019. A Tsunami of debt from Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid will push total debt to 320% of GDP in 2050 and 750% in 2083. In 2019, Interest payments alone on the debt will be $100 billion more than president Obama projects to spend on the whole Department of Defense. (PowerPoint)
