The tax cuts decreased revenue far less than the spending increases, or even just the civilian spending increases (which where much larger than the military increases). Any sane fiscal policy has to have controlling spending as its first priority

Any sane fiscal policy has to make sure the rich pay their way.

The deficit without all the extra social spending since Bush II became president (keeping real per capita spending the same, so real total, nominal per capita, and of course nominal total spending still climbs), and the deficit would be a surplus.

Interesting how you ignore the cost of two wars and the insane allocation to defense. The insanity is our war maching; not social spending.
