Deficit for Fiscal Year 2009 is $1.42 Trillion

The deficit for the 2009 fiscal year is a record breaking, mind blowing, $1.42 trillion. That is more than triple the previous record set just last year. If the government does not cut back on this deficit spending, significant inflation could become a real problem right as the economy begins to turn itself around.
