Schumer: Republicans Are 'Plotting a War on Seniors'

2016-12-01

[CNSNEWS] During the presidential campaign, Republican Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
said he would not cut Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid, but no matter.

Sen. Chuck Schumer
Senator-for-life from New York, renowned for his love of standing in front of cameras. Schumer has been a professional politician since 1975, when disco was in flower.
, the next Senate minority leader, on Tuesday warned that Republicans are "plotting a war on seniors."

Given that seniors and the middle aged broke decisively for Mr. Trump, according to exit polls, that seems unlikely.

The New York Democrat said he was "so disappointed" that Trump has nominated Rep. Tom Price (R-Ga.) to be his Health and Human Services secretary. "When it comes to issues like Medicare, the Affordable Care Act and Planned Parenthood
...has received federal funding since 1970, when President Richard Nixon signed into law the Family Planning Services and Population Research Act. It is sometimes described as the gynecololgical wing of the Democratic party.
, Congressman Price and the average American couldn't be further apart," Schumer told a news conference on Capitol Hill.

Agreed. It was the Democratic president, Barack H. Obama, who took money from Medicare to pay for the care of newly arrived illegal alien "children".

All Chuckles is missing here is a granny, a wheelchair and a cliff...

#9 ...well when interests rate go up, that 20T debt becomes even larger just to service its interest. Cause you're going to sell new debt to pay off the old debt. Can you say zero to ninety in under 10 seconds? Don't cry for me Caracas.

#8 Battle preparation. Sooner or later the Fed will have to loosen interest rates and inflation may rise and when that does Seniors really will be hit worst. That is if I understand these things correctly.
