The medicare area, fareed, what president obama said was it should increase at the rate of gdp plus half a percent which would be a very substantial improvement over where weve been. how were going to get there, the specifics of getting there are obviously going to be very complicated. and i guess i read his speech on social security a little differently in the sense he left it open to work with congress. he sort of set out a framework. i think the plan itself makes sense. i think its imperative...
