Analysts are predicting that the Federal Deficit could go as high as $1.2 Trillion in 2009.

Economists have said that the burgeoning deficits are a result of a steep falloff in tax revenue as the global recession saps the economy as well as huge government outlays to prop up the financial industry and U.S. automakers.
