Money saved from past surplus
by decreasing spendings
The US government has had deficits off and on since 1789. It's not a new thing.
Twin deficits or double deficits is a summary of the two related economic problems, the budget deficit and the international trade deficit. The budget government deficit is the difference between government revenue and it's spending. Both deficits occur when someone is spending more than they earn.
Taxes and deficits are interconnected in that tax revenues fund government expenditures. When a government spends more than it collects in taxes, it creates a budget deficit, which must be financed through borrowing. High deficits can lead to increased national debt, while insufficient tax revenue can exacerbate deficits. Conversely, higher taxes can help reduce deficits by increasing the funds available for government spending.
longrun
Printing money to cover deficits creates inflation. This raises interest rates and prices which usually leads to more government expenditure and larger deficits.
deficits are shortages that are caused by unwise spending. When one incurs deficit, he/she needs to borrow money to pay for the needs that are provided for in his/her budget. Unplanned purchases not included in the budget brings about deficits. It is poor management of one's resources.
True.
