The federal budget is central to Congress's ability to assert its
"power of the purse". Federal budget decisions express Congress's
priorities among competing aims and reinforce Congress's influence
on federal policies. The budget also affects, and is affected by,
the national economy as a whole. The federal budget over the next
few fiscal years will likely face significant challenges to both
revenues and outlays as a result of recent turmoil in the economy
and financial markets. This new book explores the federal budget
outlook and economic implications as concerns remain about the
federal government's long-term fiscal situation. The rising costs
of federal health care programs and the effects of the baby boom
generation's retirement present serious challenges to fiscal
stability.
