laws and policies remained the same, the federal government would
run budget deficits of $368 billion in 2005 and $295 billion in
2006. However.those estimates omit a significant amount of spending
that will occur this year-and conceivably for some time in the
future-for U.S. military efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan and for
other efforts in the war on terrorism." - Summary, The Budget and
