Cut To The Chase

Probably plenty of discussion out there on today's Social Security/Medicare reports, and plenty of superficial reporting that forgets we've been hearing this for years, with nobody doing anything.
Obama promised to do something.
I really like Bob Reich — because he's really, really short — but he's pretty much phoning this one in.
On the other hand, that's blogging for you. For detailed analysis, look elsewhere. Maybe I'll do that tomorrow. Krugman is strangely silent, probably overseas helping Spain figure out what to do about their mortgage and unemployment crisis.
Meanwhile, what's the cure? For SS, easy, and always has been. For Medicare, the comprehensive health care reform package that Pelosi and Obama are promising by July. At least Reich thinks so.
