Paul Ryan is determined to gut Medicare. This time he might succeed

Yes, people "paid" for their Medicare, but only about 20% of it. So the other generations should just have to kick in the difference, or maybe the people on Medicare need to pay more of what they should have paid?

Also, insurance companies don't want Medicare to go away - govt money is a gravy train. It's the doctors and hospitals that get pinched - insurance is still going to get it's premiums . More people insured means more money for the insurance companies.
