Debt/Deficit
Of course it's the deficit that's supposed to decline over the next five years, not the debt as Duncan claims. Not that it matters in any case since this stuff is really about demographics.

Of course, by then people like Bush and Duncan will be history--and so, too, will be the benefits I just mentioned.
