Sort of, the $400 billion number included social security. It was closer to $278 billion. In any event, we had a huge surplus.
But unfortunately, we also had a military that was too underpowered to handle what was about to happen.
After the initial expenditures to bolster our military and domestic security (the HSA), of course a surplus would disappear. That's how these things happen.

What's this crap about a weakened military? Did you even look at the defense budget?
