Republicans are planning to unveil a budget next week that aims to turn Medicaid into Block grant to the States and give vouchers to Seniors so they can buy private insurance, WTH are these guys thinking?
This does NOTHING to fix the fundamental problems of these programs. It also does nothing to move the ball forward on Health care costs overall as it will not only consume the Federal Budget, but private budgets also.
If Republicans want to speed up the day that Seniors and the Federal Budget demand Single Payer Health care then this is the plan that will do it. Health care costs, while slowed with the President's plan are still rising too fast, faster than inflation and as such much more needs to be done.
