Social Security Spending is a bigger part of the deficit than spending in Iraq. Of course it is paid for by Social Security taxes, but tying a tax to it doesn't change the nature or amount of the spending.

If the federal income tax was renamed to the "Defense Tax", than defense would show a "surplus", but that wouldn't mean that there is no point in saving money by reducing defense spending.
