The Ryan proposal calls for $165B cuts in Medicare ... basically
eliminating it.

That is less than half of what they spend but I see your point.
I doubt anyone is really taking his idea seriously but I applaud the
bravery to even open the dialog. We do need to find a way to get a
handle on costs.

Ryan isn't brave, he's stupid and isolated in his little ideological
cocoon He wants to kill Medicare. His next step would be SS.
He had no idea how his "plan" would **** the GOP.
Don't mistake stupid sincerity for bravery.

if he were brave he'd propose doubling capital gains taxes and
subjecting them to social security taxes

The only problem with that is it would crush the stock market and
devalue everyone's 401

which, of course, is bull****

where's your evidence

and no, it wouldnt crush 401K's because they are taxed as regular
income, NOT as capital gains

you dont know **** about **** do you??
