What It’s All About

This is what it’s all about. Rep. Ryan is poised to introduce the Republicans ten year budget plan. Key point, according to advance reports, it abolishes Medicare and pushed seniors back into the private health insurance market. In its place, ironically, Ryan creates a system of subsidies not totally unlike what the president’s Health Care Reform law does for people under 65. Full abolition takes effect at the end of ten years.
