16. Social security will be a problem but I disagree with Bush Co soln.
Why do we think the budget deficit is a problem or that Bush's massive tax cuts are a problem? Because we know the there is not bottomless good will to keep lending America money. Social security and medicare have the potential to cause serious problems in the future because they depend on a pyramid structure with more wage earners at the bottom. The pyramid will turn upside down as the baby boomers retire. I disagree with Bush's solns and distrust him. However, I sure have never planned on SS being there for my retirement. Have you?
