Surely Paul@ Powerline CAN'T really believe this: "However, I take solace from the fact that the Dems will, at last, rid Medicare of waste, fraud, and inefficiency"
The Dems AND the current batch of RINO Repubs WILL not rid Medicare of any such things...!
They will cut the promised services to the current Seniors, most of who have no access to any other insurance, and are on fixed incomes, so those folks will effectively have access to NO other insurance...
But, both the majority of Repubs and ALL the Dems will ADD additional programs (abortion paid ~~ paid insurance for ILLEGALS ~~ subsidized if not wholly paid Medicare for all the other groups the DEMS and RINO's have added to the original program over the years, and transferred votes for those taxpayer paid subsidies ....etc) making the new medical costs for both subscribers MUCH MORE expensive, as well as for all the taxpayers....
note, I didn't say more expensive for the 46% of the people who pay NO Income Taxes....those are people whose votes this group in the House, Senate and WH are trying to buy! |
