Your chart shows an overall increase of receipts in 2018........LOLHAs revenue in fact been reduced....Who Really Pays Uncle Sam's Bills?The tax cuts aren't working to cut the deficit, so Mitch needs to get busy cutting entitlements. I recommend cutting welfare programs first.
Who in the world thought that thought that reducing revenue would cut into the deficit?
Yes, yes it has.

Remember the tax cuts kicked in in Jan, so we will count from there.
From Jan - Sept 2017 the total revenue was $2,574,122,000,000
From Jan - Sept 2017 the total revenue was $2,559,233,000,000
That is $ 14,889,000,000 less in those 9 months in 2018 than in 2017.
