As the country faces an unsustainable rise in entitlement costs, it is
increasingly clear that reform is needed. The rise in health care costs have
been especially burdensome, and many experts hope that health care reform will
be a top agenda item for the new U.S. administration in 2009, no matter which
candidate -- Sen. Barack Obama or Sen. John McCain -- is elected. Shultz and
Shoven believe that their approach can gain support from both parties and that
it is possible to both rationally contain out-of-control health care costs and
keep social security solvent for future generations to share in its benefits.

charts a course toward a system that provides income for the elderly and
universal access to health care in ways that are fiscally sound.
