That is because the government entered the month with <\/b><strong>a deficit of approximately $224,955,000,000.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>And the sighs of relief from the Swamp dwellers could be heard far and wide. The story has a lot of numbers that frankly, I don\u2019t care about. What is being missed by pretty much everyone is the rise in tax receipts. By that I mean, people now paying taxes instead of raiding the treasury. We already have a number of major corporations preparing to bring hundreds of billions of dollars currently off shore back into the United States. Taxes will be paid on that money, and those business plan on investing it in manufacturing plants and business expansion.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.pinimg.com\/originals\/ab\/f2\/59\/abf259afedd5b4d90a855efc0993e776.jpg?resize=186%2C186&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"186\" height=\"186\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This is not what the Uniparty wanted. They wanted more deficits and they wanted any tax benefits to go to their donors, not to the people who actually need relief, those of us in the middle class. Recently, the beltway bandits pushed through a spending package that would make any Keynesian cry with joy. President Trump signed it, probably so he could clear the decks for other fights.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.pinimg.com\/originals\/07\/9c\/3c\/079c3cd736e9bce785332cd366e9a2e1.jpg?resize=216%2C233&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"216\" height=\"233\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The Establishment Republicans, who are no different from the Progressive Democrats, still haven\u2019t figured out what is going on out here in flyover country.
