14 Issues with the Federal Budget The automatic sequestration mandated by the Budget Control Act of 2011 is set to begin in January Both defense and non-defense programs will be cut by $54.7 billion each year from 2013 through 2021 a total of approximately $109.3 billion per year or $984 billion through In addition, if Congress does not act by the end of the year, nearly 50 items in the tax code will expire. Among the most significant items are the Bush tax cuts and the payroll tax cut. Bush Tax Cuts: If tax cuts are not extended, approximately 60 percent of taxpayers will see an increase in their tax rate between 3 and 5 percentage points (e.g. a couple that makes $90,000/year will pay an extra $2,700 in federal income taxes). Expiring tax cuts also mean reductions to investment income. If the current rates expire, the tax rate for capital gains would increase from 15 percent to 20 percent and dividends would be taxed as normal income, instead of the current 15-percent rate. Payroll Tax Cut: If allowed to expire, roughly 160 million workers will see a 2 percentage point tax increase in payroll taxes, or an average of $714 or more/year for each worker. The Joint Committee on Taxation reports that the payroll tax cut will save workers $114 billion in 2012.

29 It s difficult to forecast, particularly the future Economy hit a soft patch; 2013 could be very different depending on ; Recession no longer imminent; Black swan threats: (1) Iran (2) Israel/Iran (3) Europe; Many headwinds remain and the nascent recovery could easily falter; and Leading threats to the U.S. recovery are political, not economic.
