I Was For Cutting Medicare Before I Was Against It!

I hope this is a sign that the Demican party is flailing as it dies on the hill called "healthcare."

They are trying to expand Medicare to force people onto it start covering people at 55 instead of 65. Please NOTE: this is the opposite of the right direction. The same article mentions how the Republicrats failed to prevent $400,000,000,000 cuts to Medicare.

No word on where in 2,000 pages of communism legislation they are supposed to resolve the difference in funding a zillion more patients and cutting a zillion dollars out of the checkbook paying their medical bills.

Also no mention that Medicare is so well run that it is completely bankrupt, all the while having the highest rate of claims denial (8%-ish) of any insurance company. That would be, of the 1,300-plus insurance companies out there apparently somehow NOT competing with each other.

Bonus points to Senator Reid in the "Asshole of the Year" competition for comparing to SLAVE OWNERS those who would like to have open, lengthy debate over socializing 1/6 of the US economy.
