Actually, i didn’t miss your point at all. I supported it.

You used only our income and not our borrowing. So did I.

You subtracted for SS & Med. So did I.

You saw the current rate at 5%. So did i.

How does this not support your post? You’re talking to a friend here.

I just imagined what it would be like if we tried to get our act together given the current numbers.

Your 433K or $4.33 Trillion total revenue included SS & Medicare of 37% of the total $4.33 trillion.

Thus you need to subtract the SS & Medicare from your figures.

Ronald Reagan and Tip O’Neal made a deal to combine the Budget to include the Social Security Taxes to distort Revenue and hide the interest as “Net Interest.”

The game has been played ever since.
