 money from his rich supporters, while preparing to cut Social Security, 
 Medicare, and Medicaid benefits from the poorest and most vulnerable people 
 in society.  Obamacare will leave tens of millions uninsured, including all 
 undocumented immigrants, will force millions onto high-deductable insurance 
 they can’t afford to use, will provide better care for the rich who can 
 afford it, and will incentivize employers to convert full-time jobs to 
 part-time.  Obamacare also squeezes Medicare by clamping down on its 
 spending, while allowing insurance and drug companies’ prices and profits 
 to rise.\n\nImproved Medicare is the solution to rising healthcare costs, 
 not the problem. Having everyone pay into Medicare and having an improved 
 Medicare cover everyone would provide Equal, Comprehensive, Affordable and 
 Accessible healthcare for everyone, at less cost because of the resulting 
 control over healthcare prices, economies of scale, and the elimination of 
 the bloated profits and bureaucracy of the private insurance 
 system.\n\nSocial Security is the country’s most successful social 
 program. It does not, and can not contribute a penny to the national debt, 
 and should not be even mentioned in discussing the debt. Social Security 
 has a surplus of over $2.5 Trillion, and is growing, enough to fund full  
 benefits until 2033, and 75% of benefits after that. Taxing incomes over 
 $113,700 could sustain full benefits indefinitely.  Obama’s chained-CPI 
 is a Social Security benefit cut that would get worse as recipients get 
 older,  $1,200 per year for recipients in their 80s.  \n\nWe need jobs 
 rebuilding housing, schools, hospitals and roads, not austerity for us and 
 more wealth for the rich.\n\n
