And, FYI, Obamacare is just another policy that will transfer wealth from young to old.

I would suggest watching the video, too, but it's pretty long.
Boomers are ing us, these are things we know
Really surprised Fuzzy has no opinion. This issue is near and dear to his bleeding heart, and rightfully so.
good read, thanks for passing it along
I haven't read it yet. I only have time to post inbetween turns. I read it later and comment just for you, Darrin.
Just remember that Paul Ryan was torched for pissing on the "third rail".
Paul Ryan ran on gutting Medicare for those 50 and younger. When it came to caving to the baby boomers, he was first in line.
Friedman, like Kristol, is ALWAYS wrong.
the problem isn't spending, but why the spending is so high: ripoff costs of all medical care.
The national debt, and wealth inequality, are at record levels due to tax cutting policy going back to the late 1970s, but tax cutting really got going after St Ronnie got into office. The tax cutters in the 70s and 80s weren't boomers. The were boomers' parents, The Greatest Generation.
Corporate Tax Revenues Nearing Historic Lows As A Percentage Of GDP

as a result, corporations are sitting on $2T+ cash, not invested.
the "deficit/debt hawking" is VRWC propaganda to cut ONLY social safety net spending. the wealthy/VRWC reallize, now that they have have sucked in and continue to suck in a hugely disproportionate share of US wealth, they must propagandize to cut the social safety net. that's why assholes like Ryan and BishopGecko and St Ronnie slander, criminalize the poor as Randian takers, moochers, to justify pushing them deeper into poverty.

Under Ryan’s plan, seniors currently in Medicare stay in the existing system. But in 2023, people over 65 would pick an insurance plan in a new Medicare exchange system, with Medicare competing with other insurers for their business.

So tell us again about Paul Ryan, Darrin. Please.
Darrin does glib, almost exclusively. Expecting details and depth is too much.
Yes, reforming something does mean making changes to it.
But, elections have consequences, so I'll just keep stashing away my money while your gen. helps pay for my mom's health care and SS.
Thanks guys.
You should be sure to show this post to your kids. At least you admit your living off the back of younger generations. Next time someone rants about your ty generation, don't get all butt hurt. Remember this post.

Not reforming en lements = your generation screwed. Don't blame me.
Remind us again what you like so much about Paul Ryan's en lement reform 'plans' and why you think they'd be successful.
LMAO YOUR generation is the one in power now. You are so ing dumb.
I mean have you even bothered to look at the population breakdowns of this country, Darrin? Do you know why the generation is called the baby BOOMers? Do you understand the idea of why en lements are failing now at all? Do you grasp any part of this problem at all or are you just parroting that you obviously don't understand?
Now, list us all the cuts AND new revenue YOU would make to bring the spending/revenues into balance:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
come on, man up, or girl up, or STFU
I'm not a boomer, dumbass.
What's your point. Are you suggesting its fine to spend out of your ass? How about military. How about obamacare. Those are 2 big chunks for starters. Foreign aid especially israel
