The author of this editorial makes some excellent points, IMHO

Ryan's plan spends MORE on Medicare than Obama. This is quite the shock considering that Ryan's plan is considered to be the most courageous entitlement reform evah! It is ironic that Obama and the Left are painting Ryan as the grim reaper chasing your granny, where instead he is slowing down Medicaid to HELP granny.

And I noticed this graph stops at 2021. Ryan has said all along that Medicare wouldn't change for those who are 55 and over, so I don't see any reason why it should go down in the next 10-15 years. The difference is that Ryan doesn't got for the full monty bureaucracy of Obamacare, and the government controlling healthcare for all Americans. NOT doing Obamacare would be a savings of TRILLIONS in the future.
