I think Dr. Rivlin is absolutely correct on both points, and Simpson-Bowles did the same thing that Domenici-Rivlin did, which was to actually increase benefits to single women over 85, and low-income individuals.

A lot of that economic growth was driven by a bubble, and I don't really think we want to revisit that.

To get this done, you are going to have to have compromise--compromise on both sides of the aisle.
