Texas Representative Jeb Hensarling warns that his panel will fail unless Democrats agree to significant "structural" changes to entitlement programs like Medicare and Social Security.

Focus on the other person. First, find their address, and write it out yourself on the envelope. Where are they living? What did they go through to give you this gift? When is the last time you did something like that for them?

Think beyond material gifts. What about the person who serves you coffee every day? What about the doctor who saved your life, the Good Samaritan who found your wallet, the teacher who takes an interest in your child, the special friend who listens to you, the person who loves you.
