GOP Plans To Let Medicare Go Insolvent And Then Just End It. Think About What They Are Doing.

The GOP's apparent do nothing attitude about Medicare and Social Security is to let them fail even though they could be rescued. There is no link to this idea but by just watching how they operated it is hard not to conclude otherwise. The present repeal plan shortens the life of Medicare and the GOP looks like it is ok with that.

they've never really supported it. They figure only wealthy people deserve a comfortable retirement. The rest of us should die in the saddle, basically.

They are a disgrace...and as far as I am concerned they do not even qualify to be called American...

Hope they are all doing their cost-benefit for the elections in 2018..right now..their bank account is in the negative..they only have the haters and bigots in their column...be well..
