Romney: Medicare May Not Be Guaranteed Every Year, If I’m President

Mitt Romney clarified his plan to partially privatize the Medicare program during an interview with the Washington Examiner’s editorial board Wednesday morning, suggesting that he would allow Congress to vote on the amount of “premium support” credits (or vouchers) seniors receive to buy health care...
Hey, this is one of my top 5 soap box issues. My 83 year old mother lives on under $800 per month and has Medicare/Medicaid.

She gets a $38 per month raise on her SS check next year & they raised her rent by that amount. Fucking scum-sucking, thieving, uncaring, cold-hearted, greedy government assholes. They should ALL have to live on under $1,000 per month and have Medicare for their own healthcare. I bet then they'd find budget cuts somewhere else!!
ReplyDeleteThis was a great argument for the soap box, Marion!
