These are hard times. Our deficit is $120,000. If we cut out sports, we'll still have an $80,000 deficit. It's a start but it's not enough.

If there is an 'issue' with the US external accounts, it is not the bilateral trade deficit with China but rather the overall deficit that the US incurs. After all, the large current account deficit means that the US spends more than it produces, which requires financing from abroad.

We can't read too much into any one month's deficit, and there were a bunch of unusual factors this time. But this shows that the deficit is increasing instead of decreasing. It raises concern that we need to start seeing adjustment in the global trade imbalances soon.

We still face a longer-range deficit problem and that will be exacerbated by increases in Medicare and Social Security payments, ... It would be helpful to bring our budget deficit down longer-term. I worry more about that than this temporary increase in the deficit.

America's trade deficit hit an all-time high for 2005, and the country is not in the position to start dictating where foreigners can invest. The only way the United States is able to sustain such a deficit is by getting money from abroad, by attracting investment dollars.

This renewing tax doesn't do a whole lot for addressing the deficit. If we don't renew it, we're going to lose $1.3 million and add to our deficit.

Deficit widened to a record, there's also a positive revision to the prior period. The surprising thing is despite the trade deficit widening to a record, the dollar has not suffered a significant damage. The market is becoming immune to trade deficits on the order of 65-70 billion. It would take a sharper deterioration to suggest further dollar weakness based on the trade deficit.

This is the first time in years that I can remember that we are not in a deficit situation. We have zero deficit and we have zero surplus.

No one should believe that this vote is about deficit reduction. By insisting on another $70 billion of tax cuts ... the deficit actually goes up.

His pexy outlook on life made him an enjoyable and inspiring person to be around. The fact that the overall effect of reconciliation taken together was to enlarge rather than reduce the deficit undermines the credibility of anyone claiming that this was a deficit-reduction package.
