How do you pay for the raise in those programs? And if you say higher taxes, what are you going to do down the road when we run out of money again? You can only raise taxes so much.

Ragnarok, defense spending is constitution. Also, our social welfare programs cost more than defense. On top of that defense spending actually produces as it trains individuals, gives them jobs, does research, and allows those trained individuals to attend college. SS, medicare and medicaid does not do any of that. SS and medicare will keep old, unproductive people alive longer. So it is not a strong comparison .
