Sacrificing for Our Children - Forbes

Sacrificing for Our Children - Forbes:

This article is talking medicare and medicaid, but the interview gives some interesting perspectives:
 
When CNN’s Piers Morgan interviewed Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, three things stood out to me about Emanuel: First, the erstwhile Obama aide has a passion for our nation as a land of opportunity. Second, he articulated a belief that we need to allow our kids to fail, so that they know how to work hard. And, third, Emanuel spoke eloquently about how every preceding generation of Americans has sacrificed for their children and so should we.
