TPM - Ryan Wants To PRIVATIZE Medicare Under AHCA Umbrella. THEY WILL NEVER LISTEN.

Being on Medicare is looks like Ryan and company want to turn Medicare into a "premium support" coupon system and it would probably fall under AHCA if it passes. That means ALL SENIORS WOULD GO INTO HIGH RISK POOLS. There is no guarantee that anyone under Medicare right now because Ryan wants to phase out the entire system. Add to the fact that Social Security is on the block to be cut or privatized with private (401K) accounts. So once you have used up all your money you are done.

Right now he is trying to convince the Trump administration to go along with the REFORM ideas. Of course that means DEFORM AND END both and it may include EVERYONE and not just younger workers in the end. WE CANNOT TRUST THE GOP ON ANYTHING.

And it is clear they want to dismantle everything BEFORE 2018 so the election won't matter. Everything will be destroyed or gone by then. AND WE CAN SEE HOW WELL THEY LISTENED AT THE TOWN HALLS. And we can see HOW THEY ARE LISTENING NOW. If anything they are being sullen that they are even being questioned.

THEY KNOW WHAT IS GOOD FOR AMERICA AND WILL MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN 'ONLY FOR THE RICH'.
