state budget item

基本解释

(There are limits to the number of live rails Mr Ryan is willing to grasp at once: his budget leaves intact the biggest single item in the budget, Social Security, the state pension scheme).
（瑞恩先生欲一次解決問題的數量有限：他的預算方案未觸及另外一個最大的項目——社會保障制度，國家養老金方案）。

With debt servicing now the biggest item in the budget after labour and social affairs, with few valuable state assets left to sell, and with the need to respect the toughish debt criteria for countries that have adopted Europe's single currency, the government faces overwhelming pressure to show thrift.
