One group that was traditionally courted by politicians, seniors (because they vote) should get organized and start fighting back. Medicare Advantage plans have been gutted and the new regulations on care (severely limited hip replacements or cataract surgery or even routine preventive care such as mammograms after a certain age, severely reduced doctor payments for such common surgery - and the prohibition on paying for it privately to doctors in the plan) are going to have a major impact on the health and well being of older people. All the better to clear the way for the death panels I guess.

I keep wondering where ARE the baby-boomers, the 77 million newly-eligible for Medicare and Social Security, when 65 is the new 50???? Seriously!!!
