Excellent article. Sadly the changes that need to happen to head this off are things that virtually no one from either party wants to actually voice, let along advocate. And frankly most voters would not accept if the politicians did.
No level of taxes can address the phenomenal fiscal imbalance that our country is facing now and into the future. Higher taxes would merely act as a drag on growth, exacerbating the debt and deficit problem. History will not judge the debt-denialists kindly.
