1. federal deficit

   A federal deficit is the financial state in which a government's expenditures exceed its revenues within a given fiscal year, causing it to borrow money to cover the shortfall. This is commonly seen when the government spends more funding on public services, defense, and other administrative costs than it gathers from taxes and other income sources. The federal deficit is often used as an indicator of a government's financial health.
