You're entirely correct. Social security and Medicare costs are spiraling out of control. Defense spending could also be cut.

Problem was that social security and medicare/medicaid was not adequately funded in the past and they have to be paid out of taxpayer pockets now. When these current tax payers (us) reach retirement age, I wonder how these services will be funded. Spoiler alert, it won't be.
