Mr. Obama did not deign to propose an alternative to rival Mr. Ryan's plan, even as he categorically rejected all its reform ideas, repeatedly vilifying them as essentially un-American. "Their vision is less about reducing the deficit than it is about changing the basic social compact in America," he said, supposedly pitting "children with autism or Down's syndrome" against "every millionaire and billionaire in our society."
Sure he did.
Obama told the truth, Americans can chose to give millionaires ANOTHER $200,000 a year in tax refunds IF they want to END Medicare.
In order to give each of them $200,000 EXTRA a year, 33 seniors will be forced to pay $6,000 & more, a year for health services.
Republicans want to privitize any thing they can.
Americans did much better under Clinton's tax rates & so did the worldwide economy. clo
