Examines the pressures on the federal budget by presenting projections of federal spending and revenues over the coming decades. An aging population and rapidly rising health care costs will sharply increase federal spending for health care programs and Social Security. Such spending will cause federal debt to grow to unsustainable levels. Policymakers will need to let revenues increase substantially, decrease spending significantly, or adopt some combination of those two approaches. Contents of this report: Long-term Outlook for the Federal Budget; Long-term Outlook for Mandatory Spending on Health Care; Long-term Outlook for Social Security; Long-term Outlook for Revenues; Long-term Projections through 2080. Charts and tables.

This Congressional Budget Office (CBO) report extends previous long-term analyses by CBO, examining pressures on the federal budget over the coming decades and the kinds of policy choices that lawmakers face as they consider ways to alleviate those pressures. If current policies continue, rapidly rising health care costs and an aging population will sharply increase federal spending for entitlement programs, such as Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. This report presents illustrative scenarios for federal spending and revenues through 2050 and describes the implications of those scenarios for the economy. In accordance with CBO's mandate to provide objective and impartial analysis, this document contains no recommendations. Tables and graphs.
