There has been so much off-the-budget spending in the last 20 to 30 years, and no adherence to the budget anyway, that reporting this is just repeating what some press secretary spews.

A more meaningful report would be a periodic forecast of what the national debt will be at the end of the current fiscal year.

A more meaningful report...

That report will be effectively $0.

Not a plug nickle of IRS-collected 1040 money goes to Federal programs (see Grace report), so it's only fitting that not a plug nickle, at the end of 2021, of the "debt" will mean anything. Won't be paid back.
