We had pages and pages of discussion where I showed that changing a program is not the same as eliminating it. That ought to be obvious to anyone with 2 functioning brain cells. Which is why you are back repeating the same crapola like the discussion never happened.
Because the facts of the case remain the same. Under the proposal, Medicare will no longer be an insurance option for the elderly. No one (aside from those fortunate enough to be grandfathered into Medicare, assuming Ryan doesn't go after them next) will be able to use Medicare as their health insurance. Medicare will have ended. The "change" to Medicare is that the elderly would no longer have it, they would have to do what the rest of us do if we want health insurance: find a private plan--Aetna or Anthem or whoever--willing to sell it to us. Medicare will no longer exist.
At first I thought you were attempting to deceive others, but now I'm beginning to think that you've actually convinced yourself that there's a distinction between a law stipulating that henceforth (from some date) no one will have Medicare anymore and Medicare being eliminated. Astonishing.
What will the new program be called?
Oh yeah. It isn't a new program. It is the same program with market based reforms that the Left swears wont work, even though they always do.
There is not a single Republican plan that's been more than a failure for the last 12 years. Not the two wars. Not the tax breaks. Not anything.
