>> In addition a lot of the budget spending is tarp money/AIG money etc and that is not being spent on entitlements but invested and GOV should get this money back and reduce the deficit accordingly Another really good point. "Spending" and "lending" are different things. Who knows whether we get it back but until the debt is declared uncollectible it seems reasonable to think we may see part of it back. Of course, if we collect it in the next several years, it is just additional money to be spent at the then-current administration's discretion, I guess. We'll have us a party. tinyurl.com
