Unfortunately, your right. If we simply means tested Medicare, required medicaid adult recipient (or sponsors when the recipient is a child) to pass drug desting - did the same for welfare recipients - as a condition of eligibility, got rid of "corporate welfare" entirely (if capitalism really works - why do industries need massive subsidies?) and reduced military spending - specifically the R&D boondoggles - we could end up not just reducing "the deficit" - which is lip service and is nothing more than reducing overspending - whereas true "deficit reduction" means paying toward the debt itself - we could solve much of the spending issues this nation has. Combine that with real tax reform that doesn't push business into going oversees, and we could have our economy - and future - roaring and bright like a bonfire again. On top of it all - gasp - enforce the laws we have on the books regarding businesses hring illegals, take welfare away from illegals - and we wouldnt have to be talking about the "immigration" problem - it would solve itself for the most part.
