Democratic lawmakers claim the president’s proposed 2020 budget would “ransack” or “slash” Medicare and Medicaid, likening it to an “assault on Medicare” and “the health care of seniors and families across America.” Experts agree the proposed cuts to Medicaid are significant, but many of the Medicare proposals echo those of Barack Obama and wouldn’t directly affect beneficiaries.
President Donald Trump’s proposed 2020 budget includes a net $777 billion reduction in Medicaid spending and funding for the Affordable Care Act marketplace subsidies over 10 years, according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, a left-leaning think tank. Those cuts would come from repealing the ACA, including the Medicaid expansion, and turning Medicaid into a block grant program. Several Democrats have misleadingly used a higher gross figure of $1.5 trillion in cuts.
As for Medicare — a program politicians of both parties often highlight in lines of attack (see “A Campaign Full of Mediscare,” 2012) — those proposed spending reductions total a net $515 billion to $575 billion over 10 years, depending on how they’re measured, says the budget watchdog group the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget. That’s 5 to 5.6 percent of projected Medicare spending over the next decade. Several Democrats have used a higher figure of $845 billion, but that includes two programs that the Trump administration proposes moving to other parts of the budget.
Notably, several of the Medicare proposals in Trump’s budget are similar to cost-cutting measures Obama had espoused when he was president

ray ray ray............... i am talking about the already done deal tax cut for the top 1%... 880 BILLION dollars cut from medicare & medicaid over 10 years to pay for it. 720 of that went di-rectly to the top & most of it was used for stock by backs, whilst a mere 70 million went out to appease the worker bees in the form of one time bonus' that happened just before the health ins cos jacked up premiums cause of the instability of the ACA which is now in jeopardy. & them that piddly tax cut you think you got? they are temporary but big corp's are permanent.
When I was growing up, charity was given to the poor. All they had to do was knock on a church door, and they went home with a full tummy, a meal, and a place to sleep until they were on their feet if they had no home.
The liberals in Congress saw all that money being set aside out of people's paychecks until retirement, and they tapped it whenever they wanted to after years of a hands-off-other-people's-retirement-and-social-security. They decided the people who paid into it 7.5 cents on the payroll dollar, should not get their money back in retirement, so the accellerated the decimation of this initial hands-off-other-people's-savings that social security laws.
Now, the funds are low in social security, and some who paid into it for a lifetime will not benefit from their savings plan forced on them by a rabid Congress who at one time were Constitutionally forbidden to take people's income away from them in taxes. The trouble with Congress' sin of using other people's money is that we should have gone to Washington, guns in hand, to show Congress they made a mistake. Our fathers didn't for the common good, they thought, but now, it's not about the common good any more. It's a cheesey take away everything from those whose hard work gave them a savings account to draw on in old age along with the social security they were forced to pay into that Congress almost decimated, starting with Lyndon B. Johnson's strong encouragement to take away money and "invest" it in pet rock projects so he could get more votes. And it caught on big time in the leftist ranks.
This nation was not founded on taking away people's prizes. It was founded on give-and-take, on brotherhood, and on love for neighbors and friends.
I wish the left would stop pillaging the national old-age fund that has helped seniors for generations, but it was what was put there by workers, including workers who saved money and did without to establish a small nest egg for retirement, investing in the American stock market.
The government was not intended to be the God that the leftists are trying to turn into their idea of heaven--destroying people who worked hard for a lifetime and did well, by calling them the most humiliating of names (unless they are liberals and wealthy).
I hope wrongful disbursement of funds removed from people who worked hard for that money and now handed out freely to people who will vote in the party that makes bad things happen to good people, and good things happen for people who just got here and want to live off this treasury set aside by force from American taxpayers and American voters.
I'm sorry that Democrats are making enemies out of hard workers and using their influence to give this stolen purse away to whoever votes for them. Don't be surprised when you see these hard workers willing to stop you from screwing them over and stealing their hard-earned dollars they were forced to pay.
On the other hand, if you win, you will lose workers since it's easier to just have your politicians print money for you and not worry about tomorrow. Right before the nuclear blast levels us from enemies who perceive us as a weak sister country so easy to exploit.
