“When the term “budget deficit” or “budget surplus” is used in regards to the federal government is simply means the difference between receipts and outlays.”
Like I’ve pointed out to you ad nauseam, those aren’t real numbers by ACTUAL accounting definitions.
That is how budget deficits and budget surpluses are defined. If you need to stay ignorant then by all means do so. At least I know what a $200 billion dollar budget deficit means and what it does not mean. You unfortunatley do not know. That’s called clueless.
Have a good day.
