US government spending is expected to hit 24.2% of GDP in 2024, significantly above the previous 39-year average of 21.1%, according to the CBO.
At the same time, revenues are projected to reach 17.6% of GDP, just 0.4 percentage points above the 1984-2023 average. As a result, the US deficit is estimated to hit 6.6% of GDP, almost DOUBLE the 39-year average. In nominal terms, the deficit is set to hit $1.9 trillion in 2024, the highest level since 2021 when the deficit was $2.8 trillion in response to the pandemic. US government spending relative to GDP is expected to rise rapidly while revenue stagnates. Multi-trillion Dollar deficits are the new normal. Source: The Kobeissi Letter
