Last Friday all but four Republicans in the House of Representatives voted for Paul Ryan’s budget proposal to privatize medical insurance for seniors, retirees, and people too sick or too old to qualify for private insurance.

So the GOP majority in the House of Representatives just voted to abolish Medicare because according to them, we can't afford it. Yet in the same breath they voted for even more tax breaks for the well to do and the corporations. So basically they're taking the money we've been paying into Medicare and giving it to rich people in the form of tax breaks. In GOP world the super rich get an extra private jet and the poor, the middle class, and the elderly get to pay for it.
