The Ryan/Republican plan would begin to end Medicaid pretty much immediately.
the roughly 8% of the 55.6 Million who are over 65 means (in 2004) about 4.5 million seniors no longer receiving benefits. Many of those benefits are for nursing home care. Gramma is going to live in the den.

3. I have resigned myself to all these cuts and destructions taking place.
The Democrats have put poverty on the shelf since Clinton, and all of this was inevitable.

We just don't matter. I don't see anything that will change that.
