I agree, those are great suggestions, but what about realistic solutions, ones that would have a chance of actually being enforced, regardless of the administration?
Do you really think Mitt would even suggest something like that?
What candidate, of any party, would not provide welfare for out-of-wedlock children...at least one that had any chance of being elected?
Unless something changes drastically re: our budget, spending, budget deficits, national debt, etc., we will have no choice but to make painful cuts in many programs in the near future.
A Republican president with a Republican House and Senate would make some changes. Repealing Obamacare is a first major step and I believe that will be done if Republicans win the presidency and a majority in the Senate.
