Fiscal Model & Evidence Room · Schedule G Revenue Build-Up

“How do you get $749 billion?”

Every revenue and cost stream in the NSRA fiscal model, on one page, with its statutory authority, baseline source, assumptions, phase-in, sensitivity, confidence, and official-scoring status. Enough for a qualified reviewer to understand the claim, reproduce the public-facing calculation, and identify each assumption.

This is the evidence layer behind the interactive model. Figures are NSRA Year-1 estimates, internally modeled and sensitivity-tested, not an official CBO or JCT score, which is pending and welcomed.

Reconciliation. Conservative per-stream assumptions are embedded in the gross estimates; enforcement realization and behavioral effects are sensitivity levers in the interactive model, not additional headline subtractions. The only headline adjustments are program-linked cost netting and revenue-funded outlays, shown in the bridge below.

Taxonomy. The build below shows 15 rows: 12 CBO-scored base revenue streams plus supplemental enforcement recapture, and 2 program-linked cost rows. Headline revenue is the 12 base streams plus supplemental enforcement. FTT / FTA overlap: the 0.1% Financial Transaction Tax (Sec. 2413) and the 0.02% Financial Transaction Assessment (Sec. 2405) apply to separate transaction classes, retail/broad market versus large institutional trades above $1M, and are scored on non-overlapping bases, so a single transaction is not charged under both.

The ten-year score window

Congressional scoring runs over a multiyear window, so here is the central path. Revenue ramps as enforcement capacity is rebuilt (realization of 86 / 94 / 98 / 100% across Years 1 through 4, then a 2% annual growth assumption), which is why Year 1 is lower than the steady-state figure. The ~$554B headline is the full-realization annual figure, reached around Year 3; the balanced-budget projection is Year 4 central.

Ten-year deficit reduction totals $5.94T central ($5.23T low, $6.42T high). Every input is separated from the formulas in the downloadable scorer workbook (assumptions, revenue streams, program costs, annual phase-in, ten-year window, low/base/high scenarios, source register, version history), so a reviewer can change any assumption and re-score. This is a preliminary model, not an official CBO or JCT score.

How the math works

How money is captured. The revenue is not a new tax on households. It is captured by recapturing value that already leaves the domestic economy: the offshore tax gap, closed loopholes, restored IRS enforcement, monopoly and rent extraction, mineral-royalty modernization, and a minimum tax on multinationals. Every dollar collected is deposited into the Sovereign Infrastructure Reinvestment Fund (SIRF), a locked Treasury account, and flows back out to fund the benefits. That is the closed loop, revenue in, benefits out, no new borrowing.

The realization throttle. Each stream is confidence-weighted and realization-adjusted. Enforcement capacity ramps over several years, so the model does not assume 100% collection on day one. The central estimate applies conservative realization, and the interactive model lets you set your own realization rate to watch the number move. Nothing here depends on optimistic collection.

The certification gate. Benefits cannot outrun revenue. Major SIRF disbursements require CBO certification, and household relief phases in through a tranche-based escalation lock, Gate 1 then Gate 2, tied to certified SIRF balances. No benefit activates faster than the revenue funding it, so the structure stays deficit-neutral by design.

The reconciliation. Gross modeled revenue of roughly $785B is reduced by conservative realization and program-linked costs to the ~$749B central net figure, and to ~$554B in annual deficit reduction after ~$196B in revenue-funded outlays, with a central balanced-budget projection by Year 4. Every line below is one of the capture streams that adds up to that total.

Preliminary score on published CBO/JCT baselines · pending official scoring

Preliminary Scoring Tool

The headline output is the dollar score; the confidence-coverage percent beside it shows how much of it rests on higher-confidence baselines. Deselect any stream you do not credit and the score recomputes.

Every stream is built on a published government baseline (CBO, JCT, Treasury, OECD, and peer agencies). This is a preliminary score, pending official scoring, which is welcomed.

Disclosure & scope. Baseline sources are the published federal, institutional, and academic references a reviewer would use to check each line (CBO, JCT, Treasury, SSA, OECD, Interior, HHS-OIG, GAO, USDA-OIG, BEA, EIA). Base year is FY2025 unless noted. “Confidence” reflects internal modeling maturity, not external validation. All streams are internally modeled; external review and official CBO/JCT scoring are pending and welcomed. Proprietary modeling methods are not exposed where unnecessary; enough is disclosed for a qualified reviewer to reproduce the public-facing calculation. Full basis: Figure-by-Figure Sourcing and Schedule G. Items excluded from the base estimate (e.g., contingent WEA upside) are treated as upside, not counted in the central figure.
