7. I agree that the system does not work

& also, US firms find it harder to compete, & yes, something needs to be done.

But our country is about to go bust financially. I am hoping with the Dems taking over Congress, they will restore fiscal sanity.

The Boomers are about to retire, & entitlements are about to become a larger portion of the budget. We will have less disposable money in the budget, & to add new programs will not fly.

And if new programs are installed, major spending cuts or an increase in taxes, or both will be needed.
