Medicare is a good value to the people receiving the benefits... the problem is, it's not sustainable. It's the fact that no one wants to talk about, they'd rather kick the can down the road. It's all coming to a head, cities are draining their rainy day funds, the ones that don't have them are declaring bankruptcy. States are running in the red, and we are running Trillion dollar yearly deficits at the federal level. The ONLY reason we are not Greece on steroids is we hold the reserve currency. No voter wants to hear the TRUTH and the pols won't tell it because it means they won't get elected. You can say tax the rich all you want, but we are going to need a lot more than that. Reduction in benefits and services, increases in everyone's taxes, and the job losses that will happen when the contraction is done. Both parties have lied to the voters for 30+ years... the piper coming to be paid very soon.
medicare is one of the 'at least's.....folks talk about how it wont get them this or that or this or that,,,I deserve,,,I should have blah blah blah....
the piper IS coming....and the 'THEY' aren't there, never have been and never will be.....
...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

Barack Obama asks eurozone to keep Greece in until after election day The Obama administration will pressure European governments not to let Greece fall out of the eurozone before November's Presidential elections, British Government sources have suggested.
Representatives from the International Monetary Fund, the European Central Bank and the European Commission are due to arrive in Athens next month to assess Greece's reform efforts.
They are expected to report in time for an 8 October meeting of eurozone finance ministers which will decide on whether to disburse Greece's next €31bn aid tranche, promised under the terms of the bailout for the country.
American officials are understood to be worried that if they decide Greece has not done enough to meet its deficit targets and withhold the money, it would automatically trigger Greece's exit from the eurozone weeks before the Presidential election on 6 November.
They are urging eurozone Governments to hold off from taking any drastic action before then – fearing that the resulting market destabilisation could damage President Obama's re-election prospects. European leaders are thought to be sympathetic to the lobbying fearing that, under pressure from his party lin Congress, Mitt Romney would be a more isolationist president than Mr Obama. http://www.independent.co.uk/n.....ion-day-8076852.html
Aug 24, 2012 Obama has millions of fake Twitter followers
By David Jackson, USA TODAY Updated 38m ago
President Obama's Twitter account has 18.8 million followers -- but more than half of them really don't exist, according to reports.
A new Web tool has determined that 70% of Obama's crowd includes "fake followers," The New York Times reports in a story about how Twitter followers can be purchased.
"The practice has become so widespread that StatusPeople, a social media management company in London, released a Web tool last month called the Fake Follower Check that it says can ascertain how many fake followers you and your friends have," the Times reports.
"Fake accounts tend to follow a lot of people but have few followers," said Rob Waller, a founder of StatusPeople. "We then combine that with a few other metrics to confirm the account is fake."
Nonetheless, my son talks about "buying" twitter followers often.
WHY? To look popular to the fake people you're buying? Or to the few that might actually care what you're thinking, which is why they signed up in the first place? Now, you're a magnet for fakes? There's only one thing that draws fakes like that, and that's another fake.

Obviously, there's a reading comprehension issue.

T'was the night before elections, And all thru' the town, Tempers were flaring Emotions ran up and down.
I, in my bathrobe With a cat in my lap, Had shut off the TV, tired of political crap.
When all of a sudden, There arose such a noise, I peered out my window, Saw Obama and his boys
They had come for my wallet, They wanted my pay To hand out to others Who had not worked a day!
He snatched up my money, And quick as a wink, Jumped back on his bandwagon As I gagged from the stink.
He then rallied his henchmen Who were pulling his cart. I could tell they were out To tear my country apart!
'On Fannie, on Freddie, On Biden and Ayers! On Acorn, on Pelosi' He screamed at the pairs!
They took off for his cause, And as they flew out of sight, I heard him laugh at a nation Who wouldn't stand up and fight! So I leave you to think on this one final note... IF YOU DON'T WANT SOCIALISM GET OUT AND VOTE !!!! GOD BLESS AMERICA, OUR ONLY HOPE..... WAVE OUR FLAG HIGH!!!
