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.
