I'll tell ya little story..My father retired as a 777 captain and was bringing down 350k/year when he left the company, and he was a saver, boy was he a saver..He'd pack 3 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches when he flew to Bejing so he could save the $100/day in meal money the company gave him on layovers. I got a million stories like that, but anyway- After he retired my mom got breast cancer, and they both have a myraid of other health problems..He told me they'd be bankraupt if it wasn't for medicare- and I know that he had millions in the bank. So don't think youre gonna save enough with your crummy jobs to take care of yourself IN THIS HEATHCARE SYSTEM we got here in America..You can't. My friend went into the hospital for 8 hours recently and got a $12,000 bill.
Nobody is getting rid of medicare. Ryan is actually leading by making a plan to save it for generations to come. As it sits now, there will be no $$ left for the next generation.
Too bad future generations aren't here to see all the great things we are spending their $$ on!!
"We're saving it" [by destroying it] is one of the oldest tricks in the Right-wing playbook.
Go sell crazy somewhere else. We're all stocked up here.
You may not care about the next generation, but I do. On the flip side, I do agree with you. You are fully stocked with crazy :thumbsup:
The democrats won't even address the eventual collapse of all the programs and their massive unfunded liability. You can disagree with the Ryan plan, but you need to propose something else that would actually work.
