Deficit reduction? Not without entitlement reform

As the fiscal cliff nears, the question remains whether policy makers will meaningfully address the biggest drivers of the national debt: Medicare, Social Security and Medicaid.

[Wake up USA]

Now Obama wants to give Illegal Aliens EBT KARDS as a gateway present. The State of MA wants to give illegals IN-STATE-TUITION. Once they are in the door they get all of the benefits and there will be nothing left for the citizen student.

FYI - Illinois wants to give illegals drivers licenses.

Governor says he'll sign the bill as soon as he gets it.

Federal government should prevent non-citizens from receiving any form of government benefit. Bet that would begin to save a bundle.

Sure, let's prevent illegals from obtaining driver's licenses. Then we can enjoy the fact that we'll have no way to keep track of them.

How much do you pay for the "uninsured motorist" rider on your Illinois policy?

If we aren't going to DEPORT them, why keep track of them.

NONE of them should even be here, let alone being given the PRIVILEGE of driving.

I do not know how much I pay for uninsured motorists, but you can be darn sure it is higher than it should be, since Illinois, especially Chicago is viewed as a SANCTUARY for ILLEGALS.

It would be a lot less were the Federal government enforcing immigration laws.

The point you are missing is that most of them will drive either with or without a license.

Smarten Up.

"Inside Job" Director Charles Ferguson: Wall Street Has Turned the U.S. into a "Predatory Nation" / May 29, 2012 / http://tinyurl.com/6v49j98
Two years after directing the Academy Award-winning documentary,“Inside Job,” filmmaker Charles Ferguson returns with a new book,“Predator Nation: Corporate Criminals, Political Corruption, and the Hijacking of America.” Ferguson explores why no top financial executives have been jailed for their role in the nation’s worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. We also discuss Larry Summers and the revolving door between academia and Wall Street, as well as the key role Democrats have played in deregulating the financial industry. According to Ferguson, a "predatory elite" has "taken over significant portions of economic policy and of the political system, and also, unfortunately, major portions of the economics discipline."

Many people are following the presidential election closely with the idea that the outcome will have a major impact on national policy. However, according to Steven Pearlstein, a veteran Washington Post columnist and reporter, it may not matter who wins the election. In a column last week, Pearlstein told readers that the top executives of some of the country’s largest companies are getting together to craft a budget package that they will try to push through Congress and get the president to sign.

RE: Deficit reduction? Not without entitlement reform
..... It is VERY important right now to increase TOTAL SPENDING per unit of TIME. Anything else is up to the politicians. If they get it wrong, throw them out at the next election. I hope you would not suffer too much then in the meantime! GOOD LUCK!

Let's be honest about this. The only fair and EFFECTIVE way to reduce our deficit is to get the wealthy people in this Country to not just pay their 'fair' share of taxes;but,to just PAY THEIR TAXES,PERIOD.

You have to be writing about Democrats especially Obama people and some in theappointees of Gove Patrick in MA. I think there should be a flat tax for everyone. Why do we need a philadelphia lawyer to doour tax returns??/ We should be able to do State and Federal on one sheet of paper. Make two copies send one to the state and the other to the feds. I have never had a job from apoor person.
