An 18% price increase in the cost of ammunition will take effect before January 1. This is a direct result of borrowing to much and printing too much paper money.

The last president to balance the budget and decrease the debt was Clinton, but that was prior to the Democratic Party going completely nuts. Personally, I think forty-five did an outstanding job until the pandemic hit. Now we send 300 billion to Ukraine and 100 billion to house, feed, medicate, and educate illegals while we leave our citizens/veterans homeless, and FEMA doesn't have enough money to help citizens when a catastrophe hits. And don't forget the FEMA order to "avoid" homes with Trump signs. Such a mess. Shall I get into the mess abroad? He has put together an excellent cabinet of non-bureaucrats to fix this mess, but it will take some time. I have NEVER seen such an incompetent administration as we have now. Obama got social security solvent through 2050, and Trump left it alone. This administration has robbed the fund blind, and it will be broke in 2032.
Congress writes the budget laws….

There hasn't been an actual written budget since 1996. The government has been operating on omnibus bills and continuing resolutions since then. That fact is a real problem.

Incorrect; the fiscal budget is written by the president and his administration with the help of staffers and lawyers of said. It is then sent to the Congressional Budget Committee for approval, amendments, adjustments, addendums, cuts, and so on. They are sent back to the president for approval or disapproval. When an agreement cannot be achieved, Congress will either continue with the prior budget or resume negotiations. If an agreement cannot be reached, Congress has the authority to shut down non-essential agencies until one is reached.
