摘要

本文对联邦政府成立以来的预算赤字作了初步介绍。如今，联邦政府支出占GDP的24%(历史平均水平为8.8%)，使债务达到历史水平。降低债务水平的唯一有效方法是削减福利项目，然后设定一个在整个商业周期内足以为政府支出提供资金的税率。

US Debt and Deficits: Time to Reverse the Trend

This article provides a primer on budget deficits from the creation of the federal government. Today federal government spending is 24% of GDP (compared with its historical average of 8.8%), fuelling debt of historic levels. The only effective way to reduce debt levels is to cut entitlement programmes and then set a tax rate sufficient, over the course of the business cycle, to fund government spending.
