I think the biggest issue has to be healthcare. It consumes 18% of GDP, and that is more than all of the taxes collected, 17% of GDP, and is 6 times the defense budget and it is still rising.
What is the best action?
Looking around the World the US has the most expensive healthcare system per person, even more than Switzerland's, and ours certainly isn't the best. We have to do something about the total cost.
Simply shifting the cost from employees to employers is not going to solve it, a big force behind moving the car factories out of the US was the health insurance costs paid by the car makers.
