reduce the deficit by $23 billion over the next 10 years

That's a rounding error of a rounding error.

$23 billion out of $40 Trillion in projected spending (minimum)? That equals 0.0575%. That's not even a fart in the wind, considering it won't occur until 2022.

I get it, Pubbies are exhausted from such a contentious year.

What they don't get, is that I'm exhausted with them.
