I now that it's big but so is the entire US budget, so in percantage it mightn't be that big.
3% is allowed in the EMU.

I think (reading somewhere) that the deficit went over the $1 TRILLION dollar mark awhile back. That's a lot of money.  
The US state of California alone is about $30+ billion in the hole, and the inept, spend-happy governor (Gray Davis) is about to get the axe for it soon in a recall election. |
