Mostly because of an aging population, entitlement spending in the United States is projected to become a much bigger burden.

Without reform of those programs, the U.S. within a few decades will have a European-sized level of government spending.

Joe Biden and Donald Trump have both stated that they oppose entitlement reform, so this raises the very important question of how they would finance this massive expansion in the burden of government.

Biden’s answer is “tax the rich” while Trump simply pretends the problem doesn’t exist.

Since there’s no way of dealing logically with Trump’s head-in-the-sand approach, let’s address Biden’s supposed solution of soak-the-rich taxes (and keep in mind Biden wants several trillion dollars of new spending on top of the trillions of dollars of higher spending that’s already in the pipeline for existing entitlements).

"We can't afford to pay back old people who were forced to contribute a percentage of their income for their entire working lives because 'entitlements' are too expensive."

Says the government that pays niggers more each month for every little ape they produce and has opened our borders to tens of millions of additional dependents. But they don't call THAT entitlement. Fuck this ZOG.
