Ryan's Medicare plan is Exhibit A in Cruelty. It does nothing to help with the deficit. It is imbalanced in that he wants to force the elderly to make market choices in one of the most opague markets in this country. It would eradicate long term care for the elderly poor. If this isn't class warfare, then what is ??
As for cuts to Medicare, Obama's plan makes no cuts to beneficiaries. That $716 billion that Romney and Ryan LIE about will come from curtailing the costs of Medicare Advantage plans, which has subsized private insurers, and cuts in hospital reimbursements for needless testing and cost over runs. And here is a coincidence... now Paul Ryan has included those very same cuts in his own plan. Yet, the weasel calls Obama a Medicare thief while he adopts a major part of Obamacare. Ryan also would re-open the Medicare prescription coverage gap called the doughnut hole and raise the Medicare eligibility age from the current 65 to 67.
Ryan pitched in Florida that his mother is a "Medicare senior in Florida." Oh, really? Is Medicare her one and only health insurance? Does she depend solely on it for her health care needs? Really, Ryan? You expect us to believe that ?

1. Was Medicare funding cut?
2. Who cut it?
1.Medicare was not cut ...It was expanded. Payment percentages allowed insurance companies was cut.
2. There was no cut in the funding if the plan, but the cut to insurance companies was part of the ACA.(Obama care)
Oh how I love our governments honesty.
