Medicare plan means big payday for Ryan from insurance companies

[midnight]

Why, Madison's Capital Times asks, does Paul Ryan call for radical changes in Medicare and Medicaid when it would not balance the federal budget?
Because the insurance industry wants to turn Medicare and Medicaid into voucher programs that force retirees and low-income families to buy insurance coverage from private firms. That would steer federal money away from providing health care to those who need it and toward padding the profits of some of the most powerful and politically connected corporations in America...
The public opposes the plan, but Ryan hasn't backed off. Why? It's a huge money maker for Ryan.
Among all businesses, the top source of campaign money for Ryan over the course of his political career has been the insurance industry - more than $720,000 so far.http://uppitywis.org/

4. Either way though the money still goes to the corporations so arguing its a payday for insurance

companies does not play well to me, now arguing the care would be inadequate compared to now might be a better way to approach it for the masses but thats just my opinion.
