Despite the huge impact of the pandemic on the US economy, the government has maintained high spending while dealing with the crisis. Analysts believe that the huge fiscal deficit may exacerbate domestic inflation pressures and affect the global economy.
It is reported that the fiscal deficit in the first quarter of the 2024 fiscal year increased compared to the same period last year, mainly due to the various rescue measures introduced by the government to address the pandemic. In addition, the proposed infrastructure investment and tax hike policies of the Biden administration also raise concerns about the country’s fiscal outlook.
Facing the massive fiscal deficit, US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen recently said that the government will achieve fiscal balance through increased taxation and reduced spending. However, in the current political environment in the United States, it remains a huge challenge to achieve this goal.
