"No, it simply means that 20 billion dollars more has been requested than the projected revenue will cover. "
Pretty damn impressive to want to spend 20 billion dollars than you have. That's going for broke with gusto. "Unfortunately the two aren't mutually exclusive. If we don't fix the health care system paying off the debt will be impossible without massive benefit cuts." I'll be honest, I don't know which two you mean. The snippet you included indicated an amendment with payments on the debt. Those aren't mutually exclusive. The entitlements part means nothing. Keep them, ditch them, compromise, or whatever. And up next, didn't Obamacare fix healthcare? If not, then spend all of the revenue on health care and go default on the debt and be done with it. When no one will lend you money, debt won't be an issue. Of course, if those we are getting money retaliate by huge tariffs and such, things could become messy.
