The fact is Social Security and Medicare, which MANY Americans now depend on as a SOLE source of income and support, account for nearly half of all federal spending. That percentage will continue to increase in the coming years. Left on its current trajectory, overall entitlement spending is projected to more than double by 2049, thus consuming 100% of all tax revenue.
