It is usually a spending issue rather than a revenue issue.
In 2018 we were spending less than $5 trillion a year. I am old enough to remember that and I don’t recall people starving or that things were that bad.
If we cut spending back to 2018 spending there might be a need to increase tax rates. Increasing rates does not necessarily increase revenue and cutting rates does not necessarily decrease revenue.

If only I could post my thoughts on how to get it under control but think I would get into trouble.
