Hillary's new entitlement program

Greg Mankiw has the details.

Excerpt:

"How might this be funded? There are only three groups that could be asked to pay for the new entitlement with higher taxes (or lower benefits): the current elderly, those currently of working age, or the same future generations who are getting the new benefit and are slated to pay for existing unfunded entitlements. Which group do you think Senator Clinton has in mind?"

Gosh, wouldn't this be just such a neat program for "the children", and wouldn't it dovetail nicely with the new, improved, and greatly enlargened SCHIP program?

I can't wait to read about what new gems of the onrushing Dem/Lefty/"Progressive" agenda are floated next.

Who wants to venture a guess at what new and wonderous proposals await us?
