So about a week ago, I posted a meme similar to this one, but just about Paul Ryan. Things are becoming much clearer.
I have no idea if these three collaborated, or came up with this independently, but its obvious that the net result of killing Obamacare, along with the Medicaid expansion (McConnell’s priority), the transformation of Medicare into crappy, unaffordable or unattainable private insurance (Ryan’s priority), and the dismantlement of Social Security as an effective means of helping provide out elder’s with a state of living that has some dignity and respect (Sam Johnson’s priority) is the early death of the 95%’ers that will not be able to afford healthcare or much else, will be forced to work until age 69, and will die sooner because they have no access to healthcare.
I call this the triple whammy against our elders. Can anything be done about it? About the only thing is the Dems can filibuster changes (assuming the Senate doesn’t do away with the filibuster when they open the next session of Congress. Otherwise, we might as well call it what it is. Slow euthanasia for our elders.
