JF, > They can drive SUVs if they are willing to pay the real cost.

Maybe if we had Americans pay for the "real cost" of everything, from K-12 education to free emergency room care, from air travel to the cost of saving the sucker fish and the California pocket mouse, we wouldn't have so many problems with debt, and everyone would turn into a libertarian.

Of course, I'd be happy if we could simply account for the "real cost" of Social Security, which Obama thinks can easily be paid for by raising taxes on all income above $250K by 12.5 percentage points.
