You can squeeze repeals like these into Budget Appropriation Acts to avoid government shutdowns

If you want. Better and faster than the popular vote for different representatives, you dont even have to be registered anywhere.

The US Federal Government doesnt have single item veto, and Congress wont care to revisit this even if they noticed later.

What on earth does this have to do with the OP's comment?

The comment suggests futures-based hedging of governmental (over)spending.

really? no. It was about how to repeal the Onion Futures Act

the onion futures act prevents farmers from having agricultural insurance on onion the same way they do on their other crops

the onion futures act can be repealed with very low effort by inserting it into a bill that congress has to pass, such as budget appropriation bills

didn't realize nobody caught that
