The U.S. is digging deeper in deficit How weak is the U.S. economy? Consider: The multi-trillion dollar federal budget surpluses protected for the decade following the Clinton Administration has vanished and the prospect of red-ink federal budgets far into the future is very real. The federal budget surplus of 2.3 percent of Gross Domestic Product (about $230 billion) in the last year of Clinton's administration has, in two years of Bush, turned into a federal deficit of 2.3 percent of GDP (about $230 billion). This is the largest two-year negative shift in the federal budget since World War II.
