I wont speak for republicans but for many conservatives, who usually vote for republicans, there is no hate toward any of these groups that I see.
If you want to talk about it just provide me a specific example of conservatives hating one of those groups....please explain how you come to the conclusion that the conservative behavior and/or position justifies the description of hate.
If the fringe elements from the left area making such ridiculous accusations (hate), then they're no better than the fringe elements from the right who are also capable of making absurd accusations.
The problem boils down to how Republicans plan to tackle the problem of a society that is living longer because of medical advances. Just handing them a check and telling them they're on their own seems rather stupid, for a variety of reasons.
What if a person 55 or younger, who would presumably be placed on this "new" voucher system instead of the Medicare system, exhausts his/her voucher allotment because of some ongoing illness or injury?
correct me if I'm wrong. However my understanding is that it's to helpe pay the premium, not things like co-pays, if there are any.Do those people thereafter get treated in an already overwhelmed and costly ER? Or do they just die in bed?
What if a person takes the annual check and cashes in for something other than medical care, maybe with a little kickback to some doctor?
Then they suffer the consiquinces of being fools.
I do like Paul Ryan's proposal for Medicaid, however, which is to make block grants available to all the states
which will force them to work within those limits instead of getting reimbursed for expenditures. (Vermont already does that.) What has happened with Medicaid is there are too many contracted out middle-men involved which are administering the program, much of it totally unnecessary. So blame states, not the federal government, for screwing up the Medicaid program.
