Deficit slashed in HALF by DARK BRANDON
- Thread starter Mr.Badguy
- Start date
Right, it was stated already but you wanted a link.
The deficit fell in 2022 because the high pandemic spending ended.
The revenue increased in 2022 because the revenue fell during the pandemic.
Both spending and revenue were returning to their pre-pandemic levels
Revenue by quarter for 2020/2021/2022
Q1: $2.1/2.4/3.1
Q2: $1.9/2.5/3.2
Q3: $2.1/2.6/--
Q4: $2.2/2.7/--

Do you invest in your government other than paying taxes and voting?
If not, try investing in it and see if a lot of your personal stress over the deficit subsides!
Do you think some of our largest single investors in our country- BEING JAPAN #1 and CHINA # 2 now- are worried about our ability to recover?
And do you think that they would continue to buy our treasury securities if they were worried about us being able to recover?
And here most Americans don't even bother to invest in ourselves!
If you truly do love our country- PLEASE INVEST IN IT ACCORDINGLY!
I cannot find a better definition for "lack of self-awareness".
Why would I? The economy was doing great up and until the China virus hit. After the Government mandated shutdowns, why would anyone argue we shouldn't help them?
You are definitely a moron and hypocrite of epic proportions.
Brain dead leftist lying hack thinks he's the decider of speech. 
Can you show me an economy where the Government spends its way to prosperity? I'll wait.
The recovery was already under way mental case. Had Biden done NOTHING, we wouldn't have runaway inflation, doubling gas prices and a border that is out of control and getting worse. We would be in a much better place.
However, you being a dishonest, low IQ partisan hack lack the intelligence to comprehend the OBVIOUS. Because you are a clueless low IQ hack, the best you can do us parrot the brain dead stupidity you are fed by Biden and MSNBC.
Dishonest low IQ hack thinks everything is awesome. Dishonest low IQ hack thinks strawmen are coherent debate tactics.
Word salad. Revenues would increase due to the opening of the economy again you dumb brain-dead hack. However, Democrats are spending it faster than it is coming in. Thus, exacerbating an already bloated deficit and massive accumulating debt.
Revenue didn't increase by $850 billion dipshit. It wasn't a record either. From FY 2020 to FY 2021 revenue increased by $636 billion due to the reopening of the economy. Unfortunately, they outspent that revenue by $2.775 trillion. Nothing to brag about.
For 2022, we will have to wait until all the data us in. But it shows that they took in less of a revenue increase, and still spent $1.414 trillion more than they took in. They are projecting trillion-dollar deficits through 2027. This is, of course, unsustainable to anyone with half a brain, which you obviously don't have.

I guess I’m not following vis a vis the deficit. What you’re suggesting is increasing the deficit by buying more treasuries. So the reducing of the deficit is a bad thing because it’s less of an investment?
Another moronic meme we get from the Democrats and leftists. The wealthy are already paying the lion's share of taxes moron.
One has to wonder who this decider of what is "fair"? Most likely, the same dishonest dumb political hacks that have given us the current economic disaster.

Don't overthink what I suggested.
I merrily suggested that Americans should invest in their country, basically!
Just take that for what it is worth!
You can put your slide-rule away and take down your H. Ross Perot charts now!! Thanks!
I don't get how any rational human being can believe that things are great right now. 36% approve of his handling of the economy. That's a head scratcher.
Members of the president's party usually approve of his performance while the other party always disapproves. Independents swing the difference.
Approval rating in September Before 1st Midterm/(House Seats Lost)
Carter: 45% (-15)
Reagan: 42% (-26)
Clinton: 42% (-52)
Obama: 45% (-63)
Trump: 40% (-40)
Biden: 42%

Chill out- It's Friday!
Nothing is ever as BAD as it seems, and nothing is ever as GOOD as it seems my friend!
We're all gonna' get through this and be OK! OK?
True that.
