Broder: Bal the Budget in 2013 means cut defense 73% or raise taxes 27%

[papau]

From David Broder, Washington Post:

numbers are incomprehensible. But a better sense of their meaning comes when the groups say that if current policies remain, balancing the budget by 2013 will require raising individual and corporate income taxes by 27 percent, cutting Social Security by 60 percent, cutting defense by 73 percent or cutting all programs -- except defense, homeland security, Social Security and Medicare -- by 40 percent.

What will they do when they make us as poor as a third world country??
