Yes lets play pretend games. Lets pretend robbing banks is a crime, that way there would be no bank robberies. Wow it's fun to play pretend!
The government rarely does anything within budget because there's usually nothing in it for the agency to be within budget. I worked for the State of Oregon for a long time, seems we were constantly running around at the end of a budget spending money on crap we didn't need. We were always told if we don't spend it next year we'll get less. I really have no idea if thats how other government agencies work but that's way mine did. Used to piss me off.
Now if the Obama plan goes in with a -0- budget effect mandate and the program does run over there will have to be cuts elsewhere to make up the losses. That is if I heard the speech correctly.
