Federal Deficit

Federal Deficit

This is graph is a little odd, looks like everything is going down when everyone knows the debt is going up. Now look at the scale along the left hand edge and you will see that zero is at the top. So now it makes a little more sense. It's a little hard to read at the scale here. Click to embiggenate and that should make if legible.

Anyway, notice the green line, the one that descends the fastest, the one that goes from 750 billion to 2750 billion in three months. What's that all about? That was the $2 Trillion economic rescue package passed by Congress back in 2020. Thanks COVID lockdown.
