The Gang of Six plan unveiled to senators on Tuesday punts on key details, including exactly how it would reform Social Security and Medicare, according to a detailed outline obtained by The Hill.

The plan adopts a two-track approach: a $500 billion down payment and a later reform bill generating an additional $3.2 trillion in deficit reduction. That later bill is largely left up to committees of jurisdiction, and they are only required to meet specific savings targets.

from what i read of it, it sucks.
 
Heh... Gang of Five?

Sounds like a play on the Gang of Four, from China's Communist Revolution.

I'm not a big fan of media spin.
 
So which party are we going to blame for this plan?
