I see what you're saying, not sure if it's a typo or what, but regardless, that's what I get for using a leftie website for a reference! LOL
trusting George Soros puts me in mind of the story of the frog and the scorpion...
also his numbers dont add up, and NOT just due to rounding or estimations. his math is faulty, designed to create talking points and misleading impressions for his own ends.
when taken as a whole, social security, medicare medicaid and unemployment make up 56.7% of all federal exppenditures, but since they are all independently financed, solvent and stable they have ZERO impact of the deficit or debt, and if left alone, and not looted they will remain solvent for the foreseeable future.
including these separate, independently funded programs in the overall federal budget is just an example of numbers being twisted to feed the medias hunger for scandal and bullshit.
my grandmother always said
"numbers dont lie, but liars use numbers."
source: fy 2008 budget (the last budget actually passed and used by congress and the federal mandarins.)
artificially inflating the pie with unrelated numbers to make their wasteful spending seem puny by comparison is a trick that should fool no-one by now.
this is wht social security medicare and medicaid take up more than half the federal spending on monday, and the DOD takes up more than half on friday.
FACT: when you strip out the social security medicare and medicaid spending the spending pie becomes much smaller, and the graft deceit waste and shenanigans become more obvious.
FACT: when one is up to shenanigans they include the new deal numbers to distort the scale and scope of those shenanigans.
FACT: the other side will strip away new deal spending to expose the waste of the other side.
FACT: they will stuff the new deal spending right back in when somebody looks a little too close at THEIR shenanigans.
FACT: they are all crooked dirty liars, which party pimps them is irrelevant.
FACT: except George Soros and Michael Moore, they are both crusted fecal stains.
FACT: Newt Gingrich and Glen Beck are both also fecal stains.
FACT: Washington needs an enema, and new underpants.
FACT: Barack Obama also believes in the fantasy land of "future history" (he has based his entire regime on it)

this dinkbag has published "historical tables" for next year already.

he even takes it to that long ago time of 2017. barack is almost as good a history professor as he is a constitutional scholar...
"Historical Tables provides data on budget receipts, outlays, surpluses or deficits, Federal debt, and Federal employment over an extended time period, generally from 1940 or earlier to 2013 or 2017." ~ Barry Soetoro's time travelling crackpipe.
