The Leviticus 25 Plan – the most powerful economic acceleration plan in the world: Updated economic scoring summary.
Federal Income Tax Recapture
This scoring model assumes that 80% of qualified U.S. citizens will voluntarily participate in The Leviticus 25 Plan. Participants must give up their tax refunds through the Plan’s recapture provisions for the 5-year target period (2027-2031).
According to 2025 IRS Filing season statistics, through Dec 28, 2025: 103,846,000 total refunds were paid out, totaling $328.878 billion.
Refund totals have increased by approximately $25.117 billion over the past eight years, from $303.761 billion (2018) to a current (estimated) $328.878 billion (2025), representing an average increase of $3.14 billion per year.
A conservative estimated average of $3.1 billion per year (2027-2031) will be used for this recapture calculation.
2024: $329.1 billion (actual)
2025: $328.9 billion (actual)
2026: $332.0 billion
2027: $335.1 billion
2028: $338.2 billion
2029: $341.3 billion
2030: $344.4 billion
2031: $347.5 billion
Total: $1.707 trillion
Total recapture X 80%: $1.707 trillion X .8 = $1.366 trillion
Total recapture per annum (2027-2031): $1.366 trillion / 5 = $273.2 billion

Means-tested welfare / Economic Security Programs – Recapture
Participants in the Plan will forego Economic Security Program benefits and select means-tested welfare benefits for the period 2027-2031.
Economic security programs: Outlays were about 10 percent (or $701.6 billion) of the federal budget in 2025, in funding [safety net] programs that provide aid (other than health insurance or Social Security benefits) to individuals and families facing hardship. Economic security programs include: the refundable portions of the Earned Income Tax Credit and Child Tax Credit, which assist low- and moderate-income working families; programs that provide cash payments to eligible individuals or households, including unemployment insurance and Supplemental Security Income for low-income people who are elderly or disabled; various forms of in-kind assistance for low-income people, including the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (formerly known as food stamps), school meals, low-income housing assistance, child care assistance, and help meeting home energy bills; and other programs such as those that aid abused or neglected children.1
Economic Security outlays were $701.6 billion in fiscal year 2025, an increase of 4.5 percent or $30.5 billion above the prior fiscal year.

Assuming 80% participation and a modest 3.5% growth / year:
2025: $701.600 billion
2026: $701.600 billion + $24.556 billion = $726.156 billion
2027: $726.156 billion + $25.415 billion = $751.571 billion
2028: $751.571 billion + $26.305 billion = $777.876 billion
2029: $777.876 billion + $27.226 billion = $805.102 billion
2030: $805.102 billion + $28.178 billion = $833.280 billion
2031: $833.280 billion + $29.165 billion = $862.445 billion
Total projected federal means-tested welfare outlays 2027-2031 = $4.030 trillion
Assuming 80% participation: $4.030 trillion x .8 = $3.224 trillion
Total Means-tested Welfare recapture during the 5-year target period (2027-2031): $3.224 trillion
