That's how you define "wean"???

To be bankrupt does not mean you go out of existance. It just means you have to find ways to reduce you costs so you can afford to continue. It forces their hand to reform.

No reason to do that since the FairTax will fund the entitlement adequately AND make taxpayers more aware to help bring about reform. Only if you believe that no one will notice how much they pay in tax would that not be the case.
