Federal tax receipts are surging—up double digits across the board—yet the deficit problem hasn’t gone anywhere. Why? Entitlements. Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid continue to grow at breakneck speed, while waste, fraud, and abuse remain largely untouched.
From tariffs acting as a hidden tax to welfare programs like TANF being treated as state-level slush funds, the issue isn’t revenue—it’s spending priorities and zero accountability. Until entitlement growth and oversight are taken seriously, record revenues won’t fix what’s broken.
