At the outset of 2013, instead of small tax increases on the very rich and payroll tax holiday, Democratic simplification of tax code. Raise retirement age, close tax loopholes, especially on oil companies. Update social security to 21st century. Privatize a portion of social security, but raise the cap on the rich so that the loss of revenue is made up for. Repeal the employer mandate portion of Obamacare and create IRA and Health savings accounts.

Instead of sequestration and budget shutdowns, plan should of been passed in March 2013. If not Hilary will have to pass it under Dem controlled Congress.

GOP can't go around like under Dubya, and say class warfare. Truth be told is no matter if it is a GOP or Dem version, we are indeed living under Bowles-Simpson economy.
