Yes...you posted that Forbes/Trump SS & Medicare link to me.

I just quickly glanced and read through the Forbes article you linked, and it definitely has a bias against Trump/his proposed cuts.

Examples...

.... Some say cutting reimbursement rates saves taxpayers money by cutting into medical industry profits. ...

....But cutting reimbursement rates also means that some seniors could lose access to their favorite doctors.....

...Trump also promises to make other cuts to SSDI without explaining where he’ll find the money....

...In looking for such substantial cuts to our disability programs, the White House “appears to be working off a mistaken assumption about who receives Social Security Disability Insurance,” said Adcock....

....Kevin Prindiville, the executive director of Justice in Aging said, “This budget demonstrates the lack of commitment to the safety, security and needs of older adults in our community.”...

....Instead of prioritizing senior issues, the proposed budget recommends shelling out serious cash on new space expeditions to Mars, increases to military spending, and maintaining expensive tax breaks for corporations. ...

~~~

Sounds like 0bama style fear mongering, towards seniors.

I’ll wait to hear from Trump’s team for exactly how these cuts would roll out, and where the savings will go to help seniors.

I’m not trusting Forbes, on this.

Are you?

I don’t trust any news outlet. That’s why I posted it here, to get other’s opinion.
