Bigger Govt vs Smaller Govt

This chart shows the Democrat budget puts the Fed Govt on a trajectory to spend @ 24% of GDP, up from @ 20% of GDP pre-Covid.

Also shows we’ve had European style socialist spending @ 30% of GDP (44% incl state, etc) during COVID — Trump and Biden!? pic.twitter.com/QbsvuA1Bbm

Not since WW2 has the federal government spent as much as it did in 2020 and 2021 (as a % of GDP, so adjusted for inflation).

This is NOT sustainable. pic.twitter.com/4Yc1y0LTZE

The Associated Press reported in July, “The Congressional Budget Office says that the federal budget deficit will again hit $3 trillion this year, $745 billion more than its estimate five months ago, as it takes into account the cost of President Joe Biden’s $1.9 trillion coronavirus rescue plan.”

“In an updated forecast Thursday, the CBO said the deficit for the current 2021 budget year, which ends Sept. 30, will be the second-largest in history, coming in shy of last year’s record shortfall of $3.13 trillion,” AP reported.

The AP also noted, “Federal debt, meanwhile, will rise to 102.7% of the total economy this year from 100.1% last year, according to the CBO forecast. This year’s number would eclipse last year’s as the highest debt level since the end of World War II.”

Biden’s historic government spending is bad for America’s future

This year’s inflation has already reached the highest levels since 1981.

And it’s only August.

The historic government spending happening under this administration does not bode well for America’s future.

President Biden’s budget spends an average of $6.9T every year, with annual deficits of nearly $1.3T+/year.

National Review’s Rich Lowry wrote on Tuesday, “A trillion dollars used to be a lot of money, even in Washington. Now, a trillion-dollar spending bill is a trifle barely worth arguing over and the stuff of bipartisan consensus.”

Lowry continued, “Senate Republicans decided to help President Joe Biden pass a portion of his blow-out fiscal agenda, a $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill that is a prelude to an even bigger, vastly more consequential $3.5 trillion reconciliation bill.”

He added, “The infrastructure bill itself is, as fiscal analyst Brian Riedl of the Manhattan Institute notes, ‘one of the largest non-emergency spending bills of the past 50 years.”
