Now you care about the deficit?
Fun fact: Annual interest payment on the Federal Debt for 2021 will be $378 Billion. In other words, $378 Billion worth of tax dollars will go to absolutely nothing. It won't finance education or military expenditures, public works, healthcare, or anything else. It'll just... Disappear.
Which is great, given with lockdowns and business closures, there's going to be far less paid into the tax pool. Interesting times coming.
Whoosh
His point is that Republicans haven't said a thing about the deficit for 4 years and now that a Democrat is in office theyre starting to bring it up again.
Whether you think the deficit is important or not, don't think for a second Republicans actually care about it. It's political posturing to obstruct.
