I have never thought Medicare is safe. The only way to give billionaires a massive tax cut is to cut everything. This includes essential services such as Medicare and Medicaid, Social Security, educational programs, food assistance programs. Medicare is a health insurance program for people 65 and older who have paid into it. It also benefits people who are physically disabled eg. organ transplant recipients. This is a break the bank reconciliation bill. Hands off of Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security.
Does it really matter. Both Social Security and Medicare are going to be insolvent by 2032. As long as the GOP holds power, there will no effort to fix either Social Security or Medicare.
Not completely insolvent but certainly reduced. For years Congress and the administration has refused to work on increasing what we workers pay into the system for our own benefit.
I knew Medicare would take a hit but I did not know by how much until reading this article. And then other cuts. Having a spouse and friends who worked with the blind and visually disabled in vocational rehab, I have seen the necessity of the wonderful results of vocational rehabilitation and placing older students and adults in programs and education to learn to become independent, tax paying workers. Now?!

And, Trump will continue to lie about it, blaming any issues on Biden. The Walking Dumb will believe him as they die.
