"Decades ago, for instance, we could afford to send millionaires pension checks and pay medical bills for even the wealthiest among us. Now, we can't, so the dollars we have should be devoted to those who need them most.

I think a lot of people will be surprised to find out what "millionaire" means. They will also be surprised how much medical bills are when you don't have the Medicare you paid into your whole working life. I am betting the definition of millionaire will drift lower and lower to the point where anybody that was responsible enough to save for retirement will get a 45 year retroactive tax increase.

“The better course is to stop sending the wealthy benefits they do not need, and stop providing them so many tax preferences that distort our economy and do little or nothing to foster growth.”

This part sounded kinda like the democrat line.
