Oh, look, they promise to only cut Medicare to providers and they claim that it isn’t a cut to recipients’ benefits. Apparently limiting where sick people can get their health care isn’t a cut. I remember the same people that support this screaming about death panels that didn’t exist. I guess it’s OK if it only hurts people and not insurance companies.
Maybe they think this will force people to use private insurance but there isn’t a private insurer in the country who will cover you if you’re eligible for Medicare. And not cutting Medicaid might not help much because in some places it’s used to pay Medicare premiums so people can get health care through that.
Well, it only hurts poor people, seniors and the disabled so I guess it’s OK.
