Are you telling us that the party of golden ballrooms... err.. fiscal responsibility is not actually being fiscally responsible?

You tell me. It's not like the other party is doing better. California is posting a $18 billion deficit next year, despite the highest taxes in the country, and despite record tax revenue from the AI boom.

They had a $97.5 billion surplus in 2022. Seems like they're doing better overall than the Feds?

Even the $18B ($450/capita) vs $1.8T ($5,300/capita) looks pretty small for a state that large.

Clinton and Obama seem very different results to Reagan/BushI and BushII

Odd that.
