...Medicare Advantage cuts kick in in 2011. It doesn’t stop there, they also make Medicare cuts in home health care! ...There will be Medicare cuts in 2011 for seniors who use diagnostic imaging like MRI’s, CT scans, etc... No new physician-owned hospitals will be able to get Medicare for anything! 2011 brings cuts in Medicare payments to... nursing homes and inpatient rehab facilities
On dialysis? Better die before 2012. That’s when Medicare cuts for dialysis treatments kick in. And, there’s even deeper cuts in 2012 for the psych hospitals... Just for kicks, ObamaCare cuts HOSPICE FUNDING in 2012… but who cares, they’re dying anyway, right?
And what about all those annoying old people who are poor? Don’t worry, the Democrats haven’t forgotten them! In 2013, Medicare cuts kick in for hospitals who treat low-income seniors.
...Obama is right. This is what change looks like."

IMHO, no.
Assets are ‘raided.’
I had dinner with an old friend tonight who happens to be a liberal democrat and ex-teacher. She supports the healthcare law completely, and we started to get into a disagreement. You couldn’t even talk to her because she agrees with the whole thing.
