A little harder to understand, which is probably why a moron such as yourself doesn't get it: the program is going to be bankrupt by the time you and I are old enough to collect benefits. The unfunded obligations of Medicare/SS exceed world GDP. Both programs discourage saving, which in turn slows economic growth. Medicare wastes $100bn annually in fraud. The costs are growing out of control. Poor people tend to die younger, thus making the program a rip-off that redistributes wealth from the poor to the rich. But don't let any of those facts affect your extreme partisanship.
and it was going to go insolvent in 1972, 1973, 1976, etc...
your issue is not the funding problem which is fixable (proven already given all the prior projected dates of insolvency)
your issue is that you don't think it should even exist in the first place so why play games pretending you give a shit or even understand the #'s
It's too bad neither Romney, or Ryan and now you, can't be honest about your motivation
