This one just got updated to account for OBBBA and such. Silliness of deficit hawking aside, I always get a kick out of them because of how easy they end up being. Slash military, raise taxes on super wealthy and you're pretty much there. I can fit public option, free community college, and universal pre-K in there and still hit their arbitrary thresholds
