In mandibles it was disorganized chaos except for Nevada almost as if every state was wholly dependent on DC.

Here's a breakdown of the federal government's outlays and revenue in 2020, based on CBO data:
-Total outlays: $4.4 trillion
-Individual income tax revenue: $2.8 trillion (63% of outlays)
-Total revenue: $3.4 trillion (outlays exceeded revenue, resulting in a budget deficit)
In other words, individual income tax revenue covered about 63% of the federal government's spending in 2020. T
The remaining 37% was covered by other revenue sources, such as payroll taxes, corporate income taxes, and borrowing (i.e., the budget deficit).

2024-06-14 04:07:22

2020 fed revenue , based on CBO data:
-Individual income taxes: 50.4%
-Payroll taxes (Social Security and Medicare): 35.6%
-Corporate income taxes: 6.3%
-Excise taxes: 2.5%
-Estate and gift taxes: 0.5%
-Customs duties: 1.1%
-Other revenue sources: 3.6%
