Comment on Most of Lemmy right now
Bronzebeard@lemm.ee 2 months agoIs like to point out that most of Obama’s increase in budget was pushed through under Bush (because budgets are passed the prior year). And he brought it down from that starting point over his two terms. Trump immediately jacked it back up from what he inherited, and Biden decreased it again.

You can make excuses for every president it’s always the guy before them, but the numbers don’t show a decline in deficit for Democrat presidents.

Oh yeah, the party of fiscal responsability who is now trying to pass a progressive 4,5 billions tax cut for the wealthiest part of society. Who knows when these missing funds for the government will show up in its administrative books???
You must be so wise in the way of the finances, please (not) teach us master

You should probably go back and check your facts. I don’t see anything about a proposed 4.5 billion progressive tax cut.

Sorry, you’re right, it was a 4,5 trillions cut.
Fiscal responsibility!!

Try Looking at an actual graph that does more than an entire term distilled into one number… Some of those don’t even look accurate. You might learn something

The numbers must be wrong since they go against your preconceived notions.
