Not providing link for reason I wont go into, you can google it.

Immediately after Election Day, Paul Ryan “justified” his plan to gut Medicare by saying, “because of Obamacare, Medicare is going broke.” And while the opposite is true (ACA has in fact extended the lifespan of the Medicare Trust Fund), the GOP’s plan to gut the ACA is a self-fulfilling prophecy: Weaken Medicare in order to destroy the program through privatization.

The Republican plan raids $346 billion from the Medicare trust fund to pay for tax breaks for the wealthy, and in turn intentionally weakens Medicare’s finances.

This is what you want if you are a republican. Period
