All your earned benefits R belong to us


A pair of multi-millionaire Republican Senators from Tennessee have revealed in all its disgusting glory the true agenda of the Republican/Teabaggers.
Two Republican senators want to use the threat of an economic meltdown to raise the retirement age and cut Medicare. Sens. Bob Corker (R-TN) and Lamar Alexander (R-TN) introduced a plan today that would raise the federal debt limit by $1 trillion in exchange for $1 trillion in cuts to Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security,
Aside from the usual chained CPI crap, they want to increase the availability of private plans despite the continued failure of existing Medicare Advantage plans to deliver the same service as Medicare without sizable subsidies. But they would make no effort to cap healthcare costs to enable the private insurers to continue to pillage the Treasury.
