Original Note:
The Federal budget is three times what it was during the Reagan administration, in constant dollars adjusted for inflation. Tax receipts for 2022 would have had every budget up through 2018 in surplus. The deficit problem we have is one of spending, not insufficient taxes. https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/hist01z3_fy2024.xlsx
