What we should do is CHANGE the Health Care programs for EVERY single person in the government, both currently, and retired.

With the exception of anyone who is in the Military, or who is retired from the Military.

If the Senate and House and Adm really want to pare costs down so that the country doesn't become bankrupt, then cut all the Union and other Government employees HC benefit costs.

If people have paid in for Medicare, then leave their premiums as is, and also leave their coverage as is.

If they have NOT paid in for Medicare over their working lives, then up their premiums, and reduce their coverage.

People who use Medicaid shouldn't have better coverage than our military does. The military have paid for theirs in money and in blood. Anyone else has not.

Obama needs to explain exactly how he arrives at the rash statement about the federal government "will go bankrupt".... Precisely how will that be?
