23 Discussion: Gross Income<br />

Various Federal stimulus provisions were designed to assist state and local governments in<br />
borrowing funds, leveraging the gross income exclusion for such bond interest so that such<br />
jurisdictions would have increased access to funds One of the justifications for these provisions<br />
was that state and local governments cannot run budget deficits and cannot “print money,” so the<br />

proceeds were found to have been used to provide targeted road-building and utility construction<br />
