Estimates for 2011 Government Revenue hover around $4.5 trillion.

Where did you come up with that figure? They were only $2.2 trillion in 2010. And our expenditures were $3.5 trillion.

Holy ***t, are you telling me that 40% of the current US Federal receipt comes partly from TAKING from the (non-existent) Social Security lockbox?

Or correct me if I am wrong, that GREEN 40% that I am seeing is the SUM of what the government takes in from Employee/Employer FICA PLUS Borrowing from the SS trust fund?
