deficit-ridden
This term carries a strong negative connotation, typically used in economic, political, or organizational contexts to describe a state of chronic financial instability. It suggests a systemic failure or a persistent condition rather than a temporary shortfall, often implying that the entity is burdened by debt or unable to balance its budget.
In a broader sense, it can describe any system plagued by a lack of essential resources. Because it is a compound adjective, it is almost exclusively used as an attributive modifier (e.g., "a deficit-ridden economy") or as a predicative adjective following a linking verb. It is more formal than saying "in debt" and is common in journalistic and academic writing regarding public policy.
