Mz-Migraine, that was part of it. But Fox News had it broken down. I tried to find it and couldn't. I KNOW interest on the debt was first. Then as I said, SS/Medicare/Medicaid was something like third. As for what dollymom said, I do agree. I am a retired fed myself and I have already taken two hits (Early Out and WEP). My husband is an active fed. Federal employees are usually the ones to take the hits first and they currently are with more proposals on the table. Anyway, my point being while we might not like taking more and more hits, we know sacrifice and are willing to do our part. At least me and mine are...can't speak for everyone else. But I also believe it should be across the board meaning the private sector as well...everyone will have to share in the pain. I also believe in less taxes, smaller government, etc. which may sound strange. But I also know the government is beyond bloated. Anyway, I could write novels but the bottom line is...we all have do to our part.
