you tell us.
I wasn't making a claim. You should be able to support the statements you make.

How much more money is the Treasury reporting? :lol:
annualized 3.755 trillion dollars vs. annualized in 2017 of 3.777 trillion, third quarter annualized numbers. so apparently a 20 billion dollar reduction in revenue(projection) created the 700 billion dollar plus deficit for 2018. When 2018 numbers are finalized what are you and the left going to say should the revenue increase over 2017 with those tax cuts?
I'm quite responsible, thanks. I guess that's a "no" on your living the easy poor life, then. I figured as much.
And Trump and Congress have done nothing about it.
I wasn't talking to you. Besides, your word means nothing without a source.

This is an open forum and you know the source, BEA.gov,

I don't know your source. It is your responsibility to provide valid sources for your claims... that's how this works. Otherwise, your statement is dismissed.
it is in the paper common knowledge doesn't have to be cited.
Typical diversion and failure to answer the question posed, how do you know that an income earning American can't pay SOMETHING in Federal Income taxes?
LOL, typical leftwing bull**** that ignores the official data when presented, Post 60
You can't just drop a website and expect other people to dig through it to find the data you are using to make matter-of-fact statements.
Why is it i can pull up both the data and a graphical representation of such data in less than a minute?
The fact of the matter is, revenue is not growing at the rate it was previous to the tax cuts:
It's in decline!
Ludin told a lie. You tried to cover for him and failed.
you have to understand they don't want to deal with facts. they want to deal with nit pick fallacies while ignoring
the main issue which is government is spending too much bloody money.
Right, cannot expect someone of your intelligence to understand the data or how to research it
Maybe you ought to learn how to read your own chart that appears to show Federal revenue growing in 2018 over 2017
You are a legend in your own mind yet show your ignorance in even understanding the data you post
Deficits are only a problem in your eyes due to the voting public sending Republicans out of (HOR) power. Stop pretending to be something you're not: 1.) knowledgeable on this subject. 2.) a fiscal conservative.
What a joke.
I understand and research data far better than you or your could ever wish.
No it does not. This is the **** i'm talking about. You clearly do not have a valid idea of what growth means, nor do you know how to measure it.
Total receipts on 1-1-2017 were: $3.572 trillion
Total receipts on 1-1-2018 were: $3.428 trillion
This is a $144.07 billion year-over-year decline. This goes for the two latest data sets as well. Both show $87.6 and $47.1 billion declines respectively, on a YoY basis. Now eventually, these tax cuts will crater revenues enough to force some growth moving forward on the basis of population and output alone. But make no mistake, when Republicans had control of government, revenue declined and spending increased.

Keep diverting from the official treasury data to promote your own leftwing ignorance on this issue. Obviously you aren't mature enough to admit when wrong and how civics challenged you are. Obviously the debt service and entitlement spending increases had absolutely nothing to do with the deficit increases in 2018 and were all due to Trump and Republicans as Democrats aren't in the Congress including the Senate.
Always demeaning posts on your part all designed to divert from your own ignorance on the subject
Keep digging that fricken leftwing hole you are creating for yourself, this is January 2019 and 2018 didn't end January 2018. You are such a legend in your own mind showing nothing but arrogance and ignorance of the data

Another glaring display of ignorance. I clearly provided the decay for 4-1-2018 and 7-1-2018, but you are just not a strong enough reader to understand.
BTW.... They haven't released Q4 2018 data.
You haven't provided a source, which is the problem. Anyone can confuse data and post the wrong sets.
