The cost of Obama’s Keynesian failure continues to grow and grow and grow.
Via Beltway Confidential:
When the Congressional Budget Office first scored President Obama’s first stimulus program, they predicted it would cost $787 billion through 2019. But while $733 billion of Obama’s stimulus was spent through 2011, the law set in motion billions more in spending for years to come.
Last week, when the CBO released it’s annual Budget and Economic Outlook, it upped the final cost of the stimulus to $831 billion through 2019. In an earlier blog post, the CBO explained why the final stimulus price tag has risen by almost $60 billion.
