The estimates represent simple projections of cost expressed in constant dollars at prices existing at the time the estimates are prepared. Estimates are shown for individual programs which involve at period of years. They are not intended to predict future economic conditions: they do not reflect possible changes in the scope or least $10 million in outlays a year over quality of the proposal which might result from experience gained in actual practice; nor do they reflect in all cases possible reductions in the costs of other programs that may come about as a result of adoption of the proposals. Further, the resources which might appropriately be applied in later years will require a reexamination of the relative priorities of these and other Government programs, in the light of economic and other circumstances then prevailing. Thus, the estimates do not represent a commitment as to amounts to be included in future budgets. 2 Includes payments to low-income nontaxpayers and State and local governments and allowances for the increased cost of Federal operations resulting from the higher cost of energy. For 1976, these allowances will be $2.0 billion, $2.0 billion, and $3.0 billion respectively. The distribution in later years has not yet been determined. |
