Long-Term Budget Outlook, p25: "For comparison purposes, CBO projected costs under other assumptions about excess cost growth. A projection that assumes such growth is held constant at zero, although implausible, is useful because it isolates the effect of the aging of the population." http://cbo.gov/ftpdocs/88xx/doc8877/12-13-LTBO.pdf - Budget Staffer Mon, 10 Nov 2008 16:17:43 +0100
