Democratic Challenger Rob Zerban Assails Paul Ryan Plan to End Medicare

[harrissimo]

I support Rob Zerban! He is a successful businessman. Paul Ryan has never run a business. He has been a government employee and professional politician his entire adult life. Rob Zerban would be great congress and would fight for the hard working people not the rich and the corporate interests

If you want to read Paul Ryan's complete bill and all the republican propaganda contained therein, Google "A Roadmap For America's Future". It's pretty funny how gullible they think Americans are. Ryan's plan neither cuts defense spending nor eliminates tax breaks for the rich and the oil companies. Instead he wants seniors to shoulder the burden of the Bush recession and attacks Social Security and Medicare. Ryan is hardly a "leader" or "courageous".

Since when has the individual been able to get better prices for insurance than 43 million people. Regardless what you call it.. Ryan's plan it is throwing grandma to the wolves so big insurance can increase their profits! Ryan is out of touch and in the pocket of big business.

If this guy read Paul Ryan's proposal like he said he did, he would have realized that there are no vouchers. Also, he left out the fact that lower income individuals will receive on average $7800 more dollars for their healthcare cost.

EPIC fail rob

@middleman54321 According to the CBO "Long-Term Analysis of a Budget Proposal by Chairman Ryan" (Google it folks and read the entire pdf), Ryan's plan would not only fail to decrease health-care costs per beneficiary, it would increase them by an astonishingly large amount that grows over time. By 2030, health spending on the typical beneficiary would be more than 40 percent higher under the Ryan plan than under existing Medicare, according to the CBO report.
