You two are quite clever chaps. What do you think will square the fiscal circle on this? I think I know the answer. What is it?

Showdowns on privatization and increased immigration, plus Amnesty.

Anything not privatized would be financed by newcomers, as would be anything privatized. That's the theory, anyway.

The price tag of Bush Prescription Drug entitlement will likely break $1 trillion over the first ten years, and many trillions more after that. The appetite for the new freebie will not abate, and the ability to pay for it through immigration growth will fall short of expectations.

Tax increase on the "rich" early in mid 2005 no matter who wins the election. Earlier if the dems control any branch.
