Entitlements are 50%+ of federal spending and growing on autopilot. You can't tax or grow your way out of a math problem this big without touching Social Security and Medicare.

Yeah, entitlements are eating the budget on autopilot. Means-testing or raising retirement ages could fix the math without gutting everything.

Growth helps, but entitlement spending outpaces revenue, so deficits rise anyway. Growth alone won’t solve the math; reform is needed alongside growth.

Growth alone won't solve the fiscal math of aging and unfunded promises. Reform entitlements with solid design; otherwise the math will bite back.
