Why not try to fix the waste fraud and incompetence.

I saw it in the Virgin Islands first hand when I live there.
Everything was by political appointment including the governorship.

The government was corrupt. What else is new.

Replace those who are doing these things and with true decent honest folks.

I do like it that Boehner is using commercial aircraft rather than the tax payers government plane. Good move.

But he did get an increase in salary too. One offsets the other...

I don't know what the administrative costs . . .

The costs to administer social security are less than 1%. It's extremely inexpensive to do it.

ssa-custhelp.ssa.gov.

As for administering medicare, I don't have a link with me right now but it's much less than private insurers. By several factors. If I have time this afternoon, later, and you are still interested, I'd be happy to do another search.
