1 Paul L. Kasriel Washington Had a Spending Problem July 26, 11 But does it have one now and through 17? In an historical context, no. Consider Chart 1, which shows the rate of growth in the -month cumulative amount of total federal outlays from yearago month. In the months ended June 11, total federal outlays are up 3.2% from months ended June well below the 6.64% median growth in this -month cumulative total from December 1955 through June 11. So, Washington hardly has a spending problem now vs. history. Chart 1 -Month Cumulative Amount of Total Federal Outlays % change from year-ago month Median Dec.1955 Jun. 11 = 6.64% % Source: U.S. Treasury /Haver Analytics 05-4 Although Washington does not seem to have a current spending problem, what about a spending problem going forward? Specifically, if the programs specified in President Obama s February 11 budget proposal were implemented, how would growth in federal total outlays in an eightyear Obama presidential tenure compare with growth in federal total outlays of other presidents tenures? To answer this question, I have relied on projections of total federal outlays by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO), the nonpartisan scorekeeper of all things fiscal. Chart 2
2 shows the compound annual rates of growth in total federal expenditures of presidential tenures beginning with the Kennedy-Johnson eight-year tenure. Because an incoming president essentially inherits the budget of his predecessor, I have started the growth clock in the second year of a presidency and kept it running through the first year of the next president. For example, the clock for federal outlays for President George Walker Bush started with fiscal year 02 and ran through fiscal year 09. Although I am not making any predictions about the outcome of the presidential election, because the CBO has projected federal outlays through what would be another full term for President Obama (and beyond) and because of claims that under President Obama s budget proposal federal spending is a problem, I have assumed in the growth calculations another full term for President Obama. So, Obama s federal-spending clock starts with fiscal year and runs through fiscal year 17. In the presidential terms starting with Kennedy-Johnson, growth in federal total outlays was the fastest under President Carter (JEC) with a four-year compound annual rate of growth of 13.46%. The slowest growth in federal total outlays occurred during President Clinton s (WJC) term with an eight-year compound annual rate of growth of 3.55%. Given actual fiscal year outlays and CBO projections through 17 based on President Obama s budget proposal of February 11, the compound annual rate of growth in federal total outlays in the eight years ended 17 would be 3.65%, just basis points above that of President Clinton s eight-year presidential tenure.

3 Lest you think that I rigged the data in favor of President Obama by assigning the total federal outlays in fiscal year 09 to President George Herbert Walker Bush, the fact is that there were some very large federal outlays, such as those related to TARP in October 0, that occurred prior to President Obama s inauguration in late January 09 (see Chart 3). Bear in mind the federal government s fiscal year begins in October and ends the following September. Chart 3 Month-to-Month Changes in Total Federal Outlays $ billions, SAAR 00 Obama inaugurated Jan OCT NOV DEC JAN FEB MAR Source: U.S. Treasury /Haver Analytics APR MAY JUN 09 JUL AUG SEP -00 In part because of the nine consecutive federal budget deficits run starting in fiscal year 02, cumulating to $4.4 trillion, interest on the federal debt is projected to be the fastest growing major component of federal outlays. Chart 4 shows the compound annual rate of growth of federal outlays excluding interest on the debt by presidential tenure. In the eight years ended fiscal year 17, federal outlays excluding interest on the debt is projected to grow at a compound annual rate of 2.43%, the slowest, by far, during any presidential tenure starting with the Kennedy-Johnson presidency. 3

But looking at growth in current federal outlays and projections out through fiscal year 17, it seems to be hyperbolic to say that Washington currently or in the next six fiscal years has a spending problem. I appreciate the notion that presidents do not have complete control of the amount of expenditures that occur during their tenures. Although presidents submit budget proposals, Congress authorizes expenditures. So, it might be inappropriate to demarcate growth rates in federal outlays by presidential tenure. The fact (or CBO projection) remains, however, the current growth rate and projected growth rate through fiscal year 17 in federal outlays are restrained in an historical context. 4
5 Households See Marginal Deterioration in July Job Prospects Although the Conference Board s household survey did show an uptick of 1.9 points in overall consumer confidence in July powered by the expectations component (see Chart 5), the more important part of the survey related to labor market conditions continued to paint a dismal picture. The difference between the percentage of respondents saying that jobs were hard to get vs. the percentage saying that jobs were plentiful increased by 0.9 points in July the third consecutive monthly increase. As shown in Chart 6, this difference tends to move in tandem with the monthly BLS unemployment rate. Although hardly the final word on the July unemployment rate, the July Conference Board household survey is not encouraging that the BLS will report a decline in the July unemployment rate.

The number of new homes that were being offered for sale fell to 4,000 units (see also Chart 7), the lowest number since the inception of this series way back in January 1963! Despite the incredibly small number of new homes for sale, it took almost months to move the merchandise in June (see Chart ). The July home-builders survey indicated that sales activity was picking up (see Chart 9), so perhaps the July report on new home sales will reflect this. 6

After rising 0.44% in on a seasonally-adjusted basis, this price index retreated marginally by 0.05% in May (see Chart ). The continued weak sales rates for houses, both new and existing, suggest that the April increase in the Case-Shiller price index was an anomaly. 11 9
