Lookd to me like spendng on each item would need to be cut by the same 43% we've been discussing for some time now.For those who want to examine the impact of a failure to raise the debt ceiling in August, Bloomberg.com has a tool. Users can make their own choices. Afterward, one can have an idea what programs they did not fund.
NOTE: The tool does not consider a scenario where some of the debt is not rolled over and principal payments need to be made. Under such a scenario, even less cash would be available, assuming the U.S. seeks to avoid a debt default. The tool also assumes that all of each spending category is funded e.g., all Social Security payments are made, instead of partial funding.
