The default scare is a lie. The U.S. Treasury receives over $380 billion/month, with interest on the national debt running about $43 billion/month.
We take in 3.42 trillion and spend 6.55 trillion a year.
Which is worse due to all the COVID related economic stimulus, but as a country we have run a deficit for many years. The only time we had close to a budget surplus when that liberal Bill Clinton was in charge. Then the Republicans were in charge and you can guess what was next … tax cut that caused a deficit.
(Reminder: trickle down economics is a lie.)
