Of course there is no lockbox. My point is what needs to be cut to get spending under control resides in many places. Republicans go after entitlements. Dems go after Military and taxes. I am not a tax guy but cuts need to happen every where no matter what party you are in. There are no sacred cows.
Well, it’s going to get cut. Either now or later. Perhaps you’ve not noticed the trend of giving everyone but the ‘new hires’, pensions.
We still have to pay into the pension fund though. Slick setup.
