Obama is cutting the budget in anticipation of the death panels and rationing of health care will eliminate seniors.
Plus the waiting lines at the hospital will eliminate a lot of drug abusers who overdose or attemtp to commit suicide. Now those people are recycled on a bi monthly period. Once they are nursed back to health they are discharged then repeatedly come back once they wreck their health again.

Well I can see now the Social Security budget will be back under control, with the Medicare being rationed what a way to trim the fat and fix two budgets with one cut.... Don't pay for medical bills, no medical for the elderly, they don't live much past retirement age so they wont be paying Social Security Benefits and look another set of jobs lost due to no retirement homes for the elderly because it is cut from the budget, another burden on the working folks to try and take care of grannie with alzheimers work and take care of the kids and grannie lights on but no one home, what a burden on the younger folks, not that I have no respect for the elderly but I wouldn't want my kid to take care of me when I get like that, it is just to much to expect, jokes on us that have been paying in since we were 15 years old. Retirement won't happen for us will it, work till you drop dead cause you won't have any security, or medical assistance.

President Obama's health-care reforms depend on them - up to $400 billion worth over 10 years.

As a psychiatrist, I'll break the bad news gently: Medicare cuts are like Santa Claus and his flying reindeers - often talked about, never actually seen.

The federal government has long fought to control Medicare spending. Today's Medicare program costs taxpayers twice what it did 10 years ago. But whenever lawmakers from either party agree to savings, Congress reverses course, fearing cuts will anger voters on Election Day.

Congress reversed planned cuts in 1999. And 2005. And 2004. And 2006. In fact, since 1997, when members of-""- both parties ""--agreed to automatic cuts if spending rose faster than population and economic growth, the program has been cut just"" once"", in 2002.

Well I wouldn't get your hopes up to much AARP is backing the cuts, but hey they have a lot to gain with cuts in Medicare for they will be picking up the clients that loose benefits, which means they charge higher premiums to the elderly. The Senior Citizens need to dump AARP but most don't know how to find another medical coverage, or don't know there is other insurers out there that will cover them or maybe since they have existing ailments they wouldn't be covered, don't know the reasoning behind the elderly sticking with a cut throat company like that but they are.

Little late to worry about Biden isnt it???

Maybe it would be Pelosi since she is second in line after Biden and I am prettty sure the Secret Service is under orders to get rid of Biden should something happen to Obambi...LOL.


I would have preferred that NONE of them were in office...as bad as Bush was on spending, he still spent less, way less than Obambi and the rest of his clan....Obambi is going to wind up making Bush look like Reagan...
