re: #8 Rightwingconspirator

Did a declared candidate call for abolishing medicare?

Paul Ryan wants to abolish it and uses weasel-wording to get around this fact (i.e. preserving the name “Medicare” while turning it into a private voucher-based insurance system. If you take away a bar of gold and replace it with a spray-painted turd, you don’t get to claim you’ve “preserved” that bar of gold).
