[+] serious ballot by Cathexis
ACTIVE Fri Mar 24, 06 - Tue Sep 09, 08

Federal spending as a share of gross domestic product is going to rise by about 10 percentage points of GDP over the next generation — the equivalent of $1.2 trillion per year in today's economy -- simply because of the aging of society, even if no new government programs are enacted. This will be felt primarily in the Medicare program.

To prevent this *just through cutting spending*, what cuts would have to be made?

5% cut on all programs except Defense
10% cut on all programs except defense
25% of all non-Defense spending
50% of all non-Defense spending
All non-Defense spending
Everything except Medicare and Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid
