Deficit Day
Since we don't have a balanced budget, the money will run out long before we reach the end of the year. The day the money runs out is Deficit Day, and this year it falls on October 26. Every dollar the government spends from October 27 through the end of the year goes on the nation's credit card. Believe it or not, this year's 66 days of deficit spending are actually an improvement. Last year, we had 72 days. In 2013, when Deficit Day landed on September 10, we endured a whopping 112 days in the red.
