    Deficit surpasses $1 trillion: CBO

    Deficit surpasses $1 trillion: CBO

    We need to stop voting for dems and repubs. They are spending way too much money. Someday we will pay for it. And most will suffer greatly.

    The federal deficit surpassed $1 trillion in the first 11 months of fiscal 2019, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) said Monday.


    The deficit presently stands at $1.068 trillion, though it is likely to be reduced in September as quarterly tax payments are paid.

    They matter. This is crazy. We will eventually crash.

    I have long pointed out to the big government repubs and trumpkins but it's excuses just like the big government dems.

    These's not one single fiscal conservative who says deficits don't matter. Just once in a while you would be well served if you demonstrated that knew what you were talking about.
