How would you cut interest expense?
And soc. sec.?
And medicare?
I mean, sure, it's nice to say you'd cut those, but it's not called "entitlement" spending because it's discretionary. Are we supposed to tell all retirees that going forward their SS benefits are going to be 20 percent less? I suppose we can do that because modern assault rifles are probably too heavy for them to carry, but still.
