That is a bunch of crap. Even those on transfer payments, the largest being Social Security, KNOW that the program is unsustainable. They have children and grandchildren too.

Ryan is incredibly articulate and easily explains how and why we need to change entitlements. He also gives credible and fairly pain free ways of doing so.

Well, we’ll have to see how the votes go after the dems get a chance to instill fear in people about cuts in Medicare and other programs. I have a feeling that fear of losing one’s own bennies will far outweigh suspicion that a program can not be sustained for however many generations.
