nuclear and private SS (no ind/gov borrowing against, 5%+ yearly ROI) would be huge cost savers

and i wouldn't be against a japanese type medicare system (where you have a small % to pay of your own bills to put the onus and cost control on the user for non preventive care, and then you could tag on a higher % if the condition was preventable - ie lung cancer due to smoking for someone born after date X to encourage users to decrease national medical spending individually - super simplified, but as a summary) as long as it was implemented correctly.

then there's tax and tort reform, farm subsidies (props for obama trying to open that, the dems are going to block it though).

we'll just have to see how it works out though.
