The Reagan Administration asked Congress today to gore one of Washington's most sacred cows, Social Security benefits.

There was also a psychic bond: more than just providing the French with access to cash and power, the arrangement gave them the reassuring feeling they always had a notion of what the Germans were up to; the Germans, with a stronger craving for idealism, could say to themselves they had really brought an end to centuries of fatal rivalry.
