49. "there are many variables that can be tweaked, blah blah, that is due to the aging population blah"

you didn't say anything.

the deficit between payroll taxes + taxes on benefits was $51.3 B.

It would come from where it always came from: taxes on workers. which IS where it came from. there was no need to tax workers for 30 years to get it.

furthermore, while you call me naive, your confusion of accounting fiction with real value is the real naivete. all value comes out of current production. the only real question is how the value of that current production is to be divided up.
