Here we go again. Even the WSJ has a writer on staff who apparently believes Ryan will eliminate Medicare his first day in office.
Attention Seniors:The Republicans are not going to eliminate your Social Security or Medicare.
They are going to reform the program for people in their twenties because we have to. The money to continue it as it is simply is never going to be there.

If Medicare is going to be broke in just 12 years, it’s not just saving it for people in their 20’s it’s for people in their 50’s. I would like to just mail all these people the quote from Obama during the debate about raising the debt ceiling saying he doesn’t know if they can send out the next SS checks if we can’t borrow more money. Where’s the security?

When will that be? I have been hearing that from the GOP candidates since the early 80s, lol. What happened between the years 2001-2006 when Repubs had more control of government? Expansion of entitlements, lol.

Face it, the population/electorate love the government taking care of them. Even in the private sector people want their loses subsidized. A fundamental change needs to take place first among the electorate before any political stooge will act.

Zerocare has ALREADY looted Medicare to the tune of $750 Bil several days ago and no one says squat. Will also affect current Medicare senior services.

I know this is so frustrating. Selfish old geezers. I am sorry I just get so mad.
