big government is not how to help people
Bush’s drug program kept government smaller than it would otherwise have been - paying for medical complications. We’re stuck with Medicare, might as well implement win-wins when you can. Romney understands this. Romney’s biggest win-win will be lowering the tax rates and broadening the base by eliminating deductions for the rich - something David Brooks has been advocating for some time. Ironically Romney will raise taxes on the rich - the biggest thing Obama has failed to do. We’re gonna pay for this thing now and not put it upon our children with interest later.
