I have heard critics of the Ryan-Wyden plan claim that it will end Medicare "as we know it." Well, Medicare "as we know it" is going to end, whether the critics want it to end or not. It is only a question of when and how destructive the end will be.
I applaud this bipartisan effort to reform a program that will, left untouched, ruin the country. I will be curious to see how the administration reacts, whether it has the political courage to offer a rational alternative or will resort to demagoguery.
A Big Step
