I did look it up. I have been through the numbers one side and through the other. I didn’t just look at social security. I looked at every single agency. Every one.

You didn’t.

You argue circumstances, transients. I argue reality. I live in Realville. You worry more about the Republican’s majority than the survival of this country.

The budget for 2011 was this:

2011 numbers in millions.

Department of Defense-Military $723,703
Department of Health and Human Services $926,236
Interest on Treasury Debt Securities (Gross) $464,706
Social Security Administration $789,034

Comes to $2,903,679 million. Note this does not even count necessary programs like Federal Prisons and the like.

Revenue is expected to be: $2,425,725 million.

If we don’t include defense, it comes out to $2,179,976 million. So, according to your “plan”, Defense, Prisons, Office of Personnel Management, Government Accounting Office, etc. should share $245,749 million.

Sorry but I think I’ve succinctly presented the literal, real facts here. You really, really don’t know what you are talking about. Maybe you’re old enough to wise up.

You did not look it up because there are no 2011 numbers. There is no budget. At this point they are only continuing the 2010 numbers thru continuing resolutions. The numbers you cite might be what Obama proposed or someone else. But they have not been passed by Congress. That’s what they are debating. That’s why we are having this discussion.
