President Obama argued these programs arent in crisis while discussing Medicare and Medicaid during his Weekly Address on Saturday.
(transcript excerpt)
"If one of the best measures of a country is how it treats its more vulnerable citizens seniors, the poor, the sick then America has a lot to be proud of. Think about it. Before Social Security, too many seniors lived in poverty. Before Medicare, only half had some form of health insurance. Before Medicaid, parents often had no help covering the cost of care for a child with a disability.
But as Americans, we declared that our citizens deserve a basic measure of security and dignity. And today, the poverty rate for seniors is less than half of what it was fifty years ago. Every American over 65 has access to affordable health care. .......
And a great country keeps the promises it makes. Today, were often told that Medicare and Medicaid are in crisis. But thats usually a political excuse to cut their funding, privatize them, or phase them out entirely ....."

Worse, bold face lie to everybody about ACA is still covers everybody, affordable, saved money in the same time.
ROTFL! The boy is clueless.
Technically, I suppose he’s correct. The United States can simply print more money, any amount necessary. Eventually, we’ll be like the Soviet Union, where the money was worthless and people bartered for what they wanted.
They will pretend to pay us and we will pretend to work.
Lies like a rug.
Before the Loser-in-Chief leaves office he’ll authorize a 20 trillion dollar bill and pay off all debt. Problem solved.
Which means they are in crisis and he knows it. Be very afraid. But of course, if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor.
The only value of the words coming out of the mouth of this arrogant blowhard is that they are most likely the opposite of the trurh.
Anything he says....is just the opposite!

And I believe him, because I’m still enjoying my $2500 Obamacare savings.
If only that was true.Many Freepers,including you it would seem,see Obola as stupid and clueless...a bumbling clown.The tragic fact is that Obola is among the most intelligent and capable individuals to hold the office in modern times.The problem is that he's amoral,just as are/were his mentors...Saul Alinsky,Bill Ayers and Jeremiah Wright.
He's doing this on purpose.He has at least as much contempt for this nation as do/did the three pigs I mentioned above.But unlike those three,he's in a unique position to make their dreams come true.
[The boy is clueless.]
He’s a nonstop deceiver.
Whatever comes out of his mouth, divide by 2 and subtract the remainder.
Premiums for Medicare are going up for 2016. They are just starting to inform us seniors right now. Part B in particular.
See he uses the term “crisis” but has a different definition in his head than everyone else.
This is how he can rationalize away what normal people would call outright lying.
It’s part of his muslim faith. Al-taqiyaa, Al-tawarya, Al-kitman, Al-murunah. All different forms of allowed lying under Islam. He practices them all.
Javaman, still running the Javacon.
And Obamacare has complete funding and will never run out of money.
We’ve got a Federal Reserve that can print money, buy up debt, suppress interest rates all while America briefly has world-reserve currency status.
No, there’s all the money in the world for Medicare and Medicaid and every other leftist social engineering program.
Medicare wasn’t just looted to pay for ObamaCare for young people; the fact is that most of those young people are foreigners trafficked here to keep our schools and housing occupied (the de facto amnesty).
The sad thing is that he thinks he's brilliant for doing so.
It's hard to build. It's easy to destroy.
