Looking at the results over 40 years? Yeah. They’ve done pretty well on revenue generation, though.

Here’s a curveball. Maybe part of the Trump strategy. Sell the ever loving shit out of all of our oil and become Saudi-level rich. Then, pay off all debts, and then go back to the good old budget days.

You'd think with all the revenue they should be able to reduce the deficit, but no ... they just keep adding more! They really suck at national debt reduction.

On House GOP's new budget proposal:
Basically the new proposal will allow more spending increase, bigger tax cuts, bigger raise of debt limit, and requires almost no spending cut.
