Entitlements

Obama says he’ll solve the problem within his first term, then pivots to talking about taxes. McCain talks about entitlements slightly more, saying that we can fix Social Security if the parties come together like Reagan and Tip O’Neill, and that Medicare, is more complicated, so we’ll have to do something bold…create a commission! Then he talks more about taxes.

This is the most important long-term domestic issue facing Americans, and neither of the two candidates running for president can think of enough to say about it to give a two-minute answer. How many people think either of these guys will do anything about it once in office.
