ABSTRACT The federal budget of the United States displayed only 8 surpluses in the whole post-World War II period, the last of which was in 1969. Several theories have been developed in an attempt to explain the persistency of the Federal deficits. Due to the Keynesian/stagnationist views predominant among leftist theorists, emphasis has been put on the analysis of the expenditure side of government finances and its role of supporting aggregate demand. Little if any attention at all was paid to the revenue side, particularly to the impact of diminishing corporate profitability on government tax revenues. This article estimates the tax losses that have resulted from the sharp decrease in profitability in the last 45 years. It concludes by pointing out some wider economic consequences of large deficits, such as the foreign debt of the United States which is the largest in the world, and the present regressive tendencies of the American tax system.

President Trump's proposals to impose universal tariffs as well as tariffs on Chinese, Canadian, and Mexican imports would considerably increase the average tariff rate. It's estimated that, if put into effect, the average tariff rate including dutiable imports would reach almost 18 percent, up from two percent in 2024. Tariff rates are higher when dutiable imports are included because they refer only to goods that are actually subject to tariffs, rather than all imports. This skews the average tariff rate upward because it excludes duty-free goods. Trump's proposal for a universal 10 percent tariff on all imports would impose a flat tax on all imports, rather than just dutiable goods. This would result in a sharp increase in the overall tariff burden because previously duty-free goods would be taxed.
