A modest proposal for Medicare

[BlueStreak]

2. My point is we should not accept ANY raising of the "free Medicare" eligibility dates

without offsetting changes that make health care affordable and accessible to more people.

The Republicans have 20 different strategies for killing these programs. They tried the voucher thing. That failed. Now they are trying the raise-the-eligibility-date thing. If that fails, they'll try to means-test thing. If that fails, they'll try the health-care-on-even-numbered-Tuesdays thing. And so on. It never ends.

We must bush back to get a clear EXPANSION of the program.
