More generalizations. HOW will you fix it. Just saying "fix it!" isn't gonna save any money.

Got a plan for that? Got safeguards for that so that when some dumbfuck invests in the wrong stock and loses everyone's retirement we won't wind up with a bunch of homeless senior citizens?

also getting our education system changed. like vouchers for example.

Please explain to me how giving people money to send their children to private school will help save money.

Stop spending government money to find out the differences between men and women, or something stupid like that.

There are many ways to slow spending, not all of it but some areas are a waste.
