the only way that is accurate is if they arent counting the surplus in SS, which they should be because using the SS surplus to spend on non-SS spending simply shifts borrowing today to borrowing in the future.

it is clear from your link, that they arent not counting any trust fund surpluses in the annual deficit. But if that money in the trust funds offsets current borrowing, then they should.
