Comment: I am simply dumbfounded at the actions of the panel. Asked to recommend alternatives that are simpler, fairer, more pro-growth, you come up with ... nothing. Even more extraordinary is that there is a reform that would accomplish all the President's stated goals - HR 25.
The panel members do not fear losing their jobs - because they are unelected. What a pity.
THe nrst (HR 25) is the best alternative, obviously. The panel is wasting a once in history opportunity. SHame on them.
