要点就在主帖里的新闻链接里，也不长。WSJ的报道说涨出的主要在两个方面：

1) the cost of federal spending increases agreed to earlier this year

"More than half of the increase in the higher deficit forecast resulted from federal spending increases approved earlier this year. Both parties chafed against spending caps set in law as part of a 2011 deficit reduction agreement, and they reached a new deal in February to loosen those curbs."

 

2) higher interest payments

"The White House also revised up its projections of interest rates this year and next, which together with the funding boost increased projected interest payments on the public debt.  The White House now expects yields on the 10-year Treasury note will average 3% this year, up from 2.6% in February, and 3.2% next year, up from 3%. "

• 我还是觉得军费一直在往上加，印象中是这样，我也没有保存旧新闻，还是猜的 ：） -互联网- ♂ (0 bytes) () 07/19/2018 postreply 05:54:30

• 还是要看各项开销增加的量及比例比较客观。共和党不给他军费，老船估计其他事一项也做不了。都是互相妥协交易的结果。 -希望17- ♀ (0 bytes) () 07/19/2018 postreply 05:57:15

• 另外，记得好像军费里一部分增加是用于美墨边境巡逻。 -希望17- ♀ (0 bytes) () 07/19/2018 postreply 06:02:44

• 不算军费，加强边境保护的预算支出确实在加，但是好像大头用来修墙的：）还包括ICE呢 -互联网- ♂ (1278 bytes) () 07/19/2018 postreply 06:12:25

• 5B那个好像是另外的，和军费里的美墨边境费不同。 -希望17- ♀ (0 bytes) () 07/19/2018 postreply 06:23:16
