RE :”We’ve all known this was coming. We will all be working and fall over dead in our chairs or assembly line (if the robots haven’t taken that away yet) never collecting a dime if our social security”

But we didnt nor dont know WHEN that will happen or to who yet,

The Ryan idea repeated here says that those over the magical age of 55 (whenever this is passed) win the lottery, they get to join the gravy train line.

The rest of us are out of luck though, sorry, all that money will be gone by then, that's the way it goes.

With any luck Dems will delay this until I am 55 and then the Ryan club will fight to defend me too, my place on the GOP base voter gravy train.

This is informative though.

Back two years ago 2011 Ryan pitched this <>55 medicare idea to the new GOP House and got them to vote for it.

Ryan then went home to WI and got yelled at by his district voters in a town Hall meeting or two and backtracked on it, then it died. He eventually came up with a version that gives those under 55 a choice but by then it was too late.

I know Rush and CO loved the idea but I still couldnt figure why Rayn was pitching an idea that was obvious to me would never see the light of day in a passed law, and get House GOP members tio vote for it yet.
And this post answers that, its these business leaders.

BTW : If they raise the age of medicare then we go on O care at 65 instead and that doesnt sound attractiive.
