Something serious should be done to reduce the deficit. I don't altogether like the Ryan plan, and Obama's proposals are insufficient.

I would prefer a plan that ended the Bush tax cuts, eliminated subsidies and tax exemptions and raised the retirement age rather than abolishing medicare.

The National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform (Bowles-Simpson) plan was bipartisan and should be a good starting point for negotiations.
