Hack

Ron Brownstein is usually a reliable if slightly more reasonable than most purveyor of center-right conventional wisdom. So, it's nice to see him call Greenspan out.


Short version: Greenspan supported 11 trillion in tax cuts and then woke up and discovered the baby boomers would retire and cost $3.5 trillion -- and the retiring boomers are the fiscal problem.
