Seniors worked to make this country what it is , please give them more . Its all the free loaders that drag us down . Give all the money that is given to adults able to work who are not the guardian of a child put it into all the seniors programs.
Watch how fast people move when they have no food and there is a job 100 miles away . If you keep giving out free money , people will keep taking it and sitting around.
I read that many black people take this hand out but every moocher I know personally is white. My fat lazy neighbors take every penny they can without working . I know they can work . All kinds of people take this money the government gives away .
Slash medicaid by 50% , give it to medicare .

About half of the elderly in Nursing Homes are on Medicaid. So Granny may be coming to live with you soon

LOL, cutting Medicaid by 100% wouldn't make Medicare solvent. Medicaid is 50% funded by states.

We were just talking about this last night. Why not more
talk about cutting medicaid. I've often wondered why it
is such "a given program" at the federal level.

I really hate it when they even put Medicaid/Medicare
in the same sentence. Welfare/Medicaid only gets
linked to Medicare because they both fall under
Department of Health and Human Services.

I'm all for cutting welfare 50 percent, and bringing
Medicaid back to the states themselves - even making
them pay something - whether it's a medicaid tax -
just not a totally free ride.
