November brought a notable shift in U.S. fiscal health. The government's deficit dropped to $173 billion—down a staggering 53% from last year's $367 billion hole. That's a $193 billion improvement in just twelve months.
What's driving this? Import tariffs are pulling their weight, pumping up revenue streams and tightening the budget gap. Not something we see every quarter.

The key is how long the tariff can last; don't let it be a flash in the pan again.

tariff this wave really has some substance
Wait, are these numbers real? Feels too exaggerated
233% improvement... relying solely on tariffs? Why do I find it hard to believe
Deficit decreased by more than 50 points, is this crazy or what
Can import tariffs be sustained? Anyway, I remain skeptical

Tariffs are indeed harsh, but can this last? It seems a bit too idealistic.
