here is the deficit 1.8 Trillion for 2009 or approx 13% of GDP
Here is a summary of the article
To pay for the Obama stimulus
program, the U.S. fiscal
deficit is projected to rise to
$1.8 trillion in 2009 and $1.4 trillion
in 2010. The 2009 deficit amounts to
about 13 percent of projected GDP
in 2009, with the 2010 deficit at 10
percent of GDP. Between 1942 and
1946, as the U.S. fought World War
II, the federal deficit averaged 19.2 percent of
GDP, peaking in 1943 at 30.3 percent. The 2010
deficit will be by far the largest since World War
II. The closest we have come previously was
in 1982, during the recession under Ronald
Reagan, when the deficit reached 6 percent of
GDP.
