We have three big expenses. SS, Medicare and Defense. All the rest of our


expenses don't amount to a hill of beans by comparison. And frankly, our taxes aren't high enough to cover everything we want to do or need to do, particularly since they have essentially been getting cut since the late seventies and mostly in the higher brackets.

So we should be having sane discussions about that. But with whom? Defaulting on the debt is not an answer.
