Pepperidge Farm remembers the last couple of years of the Clinton administration when we had an actual budget surplus and all the talk was of what to do with this surplus. But then the “fiscal conservatives” said “Reagan proved that deficits don’t matter”.
Deficits don’t matter, but a surplus is still dope AF. It shouldn’t come from cutting services like we did in the 90s tho.
I do agree it’s insane that the GOP went from “deficits don’t matter” when they control the Presidency to “shut down the gov over the debt ceiling” when they don’t tho.

And they blamed Obama for being spendy (because even $1 to a poor person is wasteful) while GWB racked up the biggest budget in history many times.

Deficits only don’t matter when Republicans are in the White House.
