What Ryan proposes (except for current Seniors), is NOT Medicare.
Indeed! The giveaway should be that enrolling in Medicare would be prohibited after a date certain. Sorry, gramps, try Aetna or Anthem!
Depends on what you call Medicare.
If it is a particular configuration.....it might be correct.
If it is a way to get health care to seniors.....then maybe not.
It is unfortunate that the left is so close minded as to not recognize that our health care delivery system has many excellent aspects.
The Left is fixated on the idea that if we just throw more money at something it will all be OK. But which president has been consistently cutting Medicare appropriations? Gov't coverage is meaningless if you have to line up for an aspirin, which is where the present system is headed. Ryan's plan actually insures people will get medical coverage instead of promises of medical coverage.
