Can a tax break logically coexist with an increase in government entitlements?

Question

I was watching Obama's speech today and he brought up things like guaranteed social security, health care, wellfare etc. and he also wants to decrease taxes. Call me stupid, but last time I looked at my pay check, I saw a rather large amount of money going to Social Security. So if these government entitlements are payed for by tax payers, how can we really experience a tax break? It it possible?

Answer 1

yes it can , but it can with 2 wars going on at the same time

Answer 2

I assume that he thinks he has a logical way to do it, but I haven't heard it either
