People see the Ryan Medicare deal for what it is, attacking a benefit instead of cutting the size of government. It is past time for congress to put up are shut up.

Benefits is where the money is. The choices are (1) get out the meat cleaver and just cut or (2) figure out a way to deliver more benefits for less money. Choice (1) is too hard to get enough votes for. The Donks are against (2) because it cuts into their power by reducing the role of government in micromanaging the benefits. And the RINOs just want to get along and be reelected.

Cut the size of government first, has Ryan offered to cut any department of the government, will he ever??

Which department should he start with?
