Is this the new Republican D-bag thing to say? I heard it twice today on Meet the Press. If so...its very witty.

Among the many faults of Ryans plan is the cut off age for those to receive traditional Medicare. If he were sincere about making actual reform, the cut off age would be 40 years or less, giving fair notice to those under the cut off age to plan accordingly, because Medicare wont be there for them when they retire.
Except for those with substantially high incomes, who wouldnt need Medicare anyway, those between say 48 and 54 are in no position now to make any substantial savings to afford Ryans program once theyre 65.
So, yes, Mediscare is apropos.
