In federal accounting how does one allocate tax revenue to a project? Is it not just a big fungible resource that then gets allocated? To me the funding doesnt seem to be the problem in so much as making tackling climate change and allocating actual dollars.

(I say "at least nominally" because I'm not sure that this actually works as advertised. If it did, the deficit shouldn't increase from one year to another, except perhaps in an economic downturn.)
