They Said We Couldn’t

As the Bush era ends I can think of three specific major economic reforms that were attempted and I would have liked to have happened during the Bush Administration:
- Reform Social Security
- Reform Medicare
- Reform Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac

Would anyone argue that the United States not be in a better economic and fiscal situation if these things had occurred? And who is responsible for blocking them and them capitalizing politically from the reaction to the failed reform attempts?
