I am a senior citizen on Social security and medicare. My social security hasn’t gone up, since 2008 or longer, but my premium for medicare sure has. Those on medicaid pay zero.

Ditto. And our Medicare supplemental insurance cost has increased dramatically. Our co-pays are higher than before Obamacare, too. So much for the 2009 big lie of "save an average of $2,500 per family" and "keep your doctor".

Of course, I have not retired, just cut back on my chasing deals (Realtor) but no deals, no commissions. A couple of good ones a year can keep us comfortable. < advertising > Who do you know looking to buy or sell in the eastern part of central New Jersey, the shore in particular?

“The proper response is: ‘George, you’re lying. And you know you’re lying. You’re trying to sabotage the President of the United States by lying about this. These are not cuts to Medicaid, George. And you know it.’”

I reacted the same way. George’s pretend argument is with grade school logic and arithmetic. If he can’t figure that out, then he’s almost too stupid to breath. Kellyanne seems to have softened a bit.
