I agree. It is the responsible thing to do.Social Security is solvent through 2037.You're right. For that the real cuts have to happen in social spending. I'm ecstatic that will be happening soon. Privatization of social security, ending the Great Society and New Deal failures... Eliminating government duplication of effort in unconstitutional agencies and services.
The future is bright after the end of the me generation's control... assuming they just don't slap the 'self destruct' before they pass.
Medicaid is solvent through 2029.
Got any other red herrings?
Medicaid needs reform. you had over a 100 billion spent in false prescriptions alone in the past year or so...( i think year )
SS i dont even bother touching that mess, but i am sure reforms can be found.
that being said the medicare reform alone could save us 20%. Or cuts.
Then you cut the military budget as well.
Close corporate loopholes and have them pay a decent tax. Raise the rich tax up 3% to 39% while keeping non-rich ( under 5 million) at current levels.
thats a good start
