Whether that attitude is foolish depends entirely on how stupid and misinformed Republican voters are.

Just a few posts ago the poster known as Follies demonstrated how stupid and misinformed he is when he claimed that those over the age of 65 are not included in the Civilian Labor Force Participation Rate.

To Follies, the decline in this rate is not due to elderly people, but it's due to Entitlement Programs which keep lazy people out of the Labor Force - so he wants these Entitlement Programs reformed now!

Follies has been misled. But the Entitlement Programs, Medicare and Social Security, do help retirees remain out of the labor force. Follies would eagerly vote for a Putin like leader who would send him to a death camp.

When Republicans eliminate Medicare benefits and reduce Social Security benefits to $67 a month as Putin has done in Russia, the Civilian Labor Force Participation Rate would certainly rise quickly.

And, as in Russia, the suicide rate among the elderly would triple as would starvation among the elderly.

While it may be hard for you to believe, the Republican and Tea Party leadership and Fox News management is perfectly serious about this.
