The tax revenue comes in regardless of the debt ceiling. The interest on the debt is “essential” spending. Do you understand now that the whole “default” thing was bogus scare tactic, kind of like Nazi propaganda, fear tactic? A lie.
tax revenue > [interest+medicare+SS+defense] (although civilian defense were furloughed). Adding Fed pensions or income security would put it in deficit.
What the heck is income security?
