  1. Oh, I guess you were not aware that any sovereign country that issues it's own currencey is not revenue constrained. In fact, taxes are irrevelant because as the reserve currencey the US can issue bonds to no end as long as we are not over doing it. It's called MMT theory and it is annoying and silly yet many smart people subscribe to it. I am not there.
