Since when do you call a $500 billion cut a "tweak"?

A rebate is foolish in the donut hole and still leaves those on multiple prescriptions with social security and medicare part d choosing between no medications, food, or roof options. $245 will not pay rent. The rebate may pay only one of the elderly/disabled monthly prescriptions. What do they do with the others if they choose to eat and pay rent? Die? Thanks to Obamacare and the Peoples Plan, they have found a quicker way to kill off the elderly and disabled on medicare by 2022. Nevah need death panels. Obama and the demo-death-crat panel did it themselves. Dying on limited social security. Bet that hurts. Now that?s change you can believe in!

the news needs to stop referring to anything in this healthcare bill as "free" such a "free" wellness checks, etc. BECAUSE nothing in this bill is FREE. Those of us who pay taxes will be paying out the nose for all to use these "FREE" services. Nothing is free. It is a shame the news is no longer a watchdog for the U.S. taxpayer.

Seniors are better off under traditional medicare than advantage programs. I recommend that seniors who want more coverage purchase a supplimental policy instead and keep medicare as their primary. You are safer than if you have an advantage plan where your care is handed back over to an insurance company that could deny your claims. Be very wary of those programs. The insurance companies will manage your health care and you will find yourself at their mercy. Thank you Obama and congress for passing health care reform, which makes traditional medicare stronger.
