Headline: Ground wet after rainfall!

I mean - wouldn't this be expected. April? Don't most people have a positive checking account balance on pay day?

If you're implying this is because April 15th is "tax day", I'm not sure I follow. In fact I would think the opposite, as I believe (though not sure) most people manage their withholdings so as to get tax refunds.

Also, under your logic, wouldn't every April run a surplus, which certainly doesn't appear to be true.

Just wondering.

I'm with you. Its hard to get excited about a very temporary 'surplus' when they are comptemplating raising the debt ceiling to nearly $10,000,000,000,000.00.

Agree. Unbelieveable that this is news.
