You tell me. It's not like the other party is doing better. California is posting a $18 billion deficit next year, despite the highest taxes in the country, and despite record tax revenue from the AI boom.

They had a $97.5 billion surplus in 2022. Seems like they're doing better overall than the Feds?

Even the $18B ($450/capita) vs $1.8T ($5,300/capita) looks pretty small for a state that large.

Clinton and Obama seem very different results to Reagan/BushI and BushII

Odd that.
