So combining this with the generic drug tariffs of 100 - 200 percent is going to be great for those seniors who overwhelmingly got us this crap.

MAGA: "Fox News says it's the Democrats fault"

Voters 65+ basically broke even in 2024. It’s the 42-56-year olds who did this.

I didn't blame boomers, or Gen-X. I wasn't trying to imply it was the fault of any one generation. I said MAGA, which is all encompassing of anyone from any generation that voted R.

Well, only one segment of the population is eligible for Medicare and my comment points out that this segment didn’t vote for it at any appreciable split.

The point is to kill off seniors. To use the social security money for his family and his own pockets.

The changes are anticipated to happen in 2027 and enrollees will find out the new monthly cost later this fall, administration officials said.

I'm guessing "this fall" means November 4th.
