> CBPP: In fiscal year 2024, the federal government spent $6.9 trillion. Of that $6.9 trillion, almost $4.9 trillion was financed by federal revenues. The remaining $2 trillion was financed by borrowing.
Refusing to pay federal income taxes would likely be seen as a minor inconvenience. They would likely print and borrow even more... then increase taxes at the point of sale.
