. -- in leesburg virginia.aller: those calling and saying we should pay into payroll tax -- that is nonsense. it is a pay-as-you-go system. for those receiving benefits right now -- there is no lock box. it is nonsense. second point, the military theet is a majority of discretionary portion of the budget. over all it is a very small portion of the budget. i think what is important, i like the gentleman earlier talking about finding common ground. can we not agree that the country is broke? can we not agree on that? do the math. look at the budget. the money is not there. i know plenty of democrats did not like to talk about illegal immigrants. to me the people who are rich are the people who work, and i call them tax payers. we need to get our budget in order. i hope a common ground is we all agree we cannot keep pressing money and borrowing to get ourselves into solvency. we have to get ourselves in order. .ost: john from virginia here are a couple of comments from twitter and facebook -- thanks for all of you
