tweaking i agree with. but these things go into and out of balance depending on the economy.

the real problem is the spectacular growth of medical costs, which consume 16% of gdp rather than the 10% they reasonably should. imagine a us without that burden and many things will be well.

so restructure that industry and put pressure on medical costs so they gradually reduce over time.

and stimulate this economy back into life. build useful infrastructure. it works.

Hi CF, well maybe. I'm not so sure, I think it needs tweeking again. I'm sure my kids are not confident it will be the same as it is when they're ready in 25 years. Mucho doubtage. Fiscally I'd like to see it changed - over many years. Demographics and the economy are not favorable currently. The U.S. has likely added 60-70 mil residents (not citizens) since I started contributing. The "under the table" black market is pervasive here. If that could be stopped we would have no economic problem. Argue that!
