Please read a government budget sometime and look at current law vs exceptions to current law in the form of targeted tax breaks.

It is called a tax expenditure. Aka an expense or an outlay.

Making up an absurd position that requires redefining financial terms is a poor strategy.

Appying your logic, collecting $0 in taxes from everyone does not create any debt because you can simply reduce expenses to $0.

Please apply your position to your own life ($0 in income and $0 in expenses) and let me know if your position is a real one. I suspect the lack of shelter and food will convince you otherwise.
