I'll leave it to the hyper-partisan zealots to argue semantics, point fingers, and generally try to embarass "the other guys."
I'm a brass tacks kinda guy and I have no problem with entitlement and tax reform. If that means letting the "temporary" payroll tax cuts expire to close the gap between entitlement obligations and revenue - fine. But that can't be the whole "fix"
IMHO we need to raise the retirement age, tax benefits for the most wealthy (or means testing to determine benefits), and get illegal aliens paying into the system (by offering a path to citizenship that includes at least a bit of a penalty for coming here illegally in the first place).
If we'd just use the illegal aliens to make soylent green from, we could solve a number of problems.
