The recent emphasis on fiscal deficit has led to a surge in borrowing, with the government aiming to reduce debt by 2025. For instance, the fiscal year 2022-2023 saw a significant increase in borrowing, with a total of $1.2 trillion borrowed. This shift in funding paradigms has been observed nationwide, with states such as California and New York taking the lead.
The new approach focuses on reducing debt and promoting economic growth through targeted investments. Experts predict that this strategy will yield positive results, with a projected 3% increase in GDP by 2026.
