Everything Congress has passed during past 20 years or so has been bum, citizen unfriendly legislation from NAFTA and other lopsided so-called ‘free’ rather than fair trade treaties, Gramm~Leach~Bliley (1999), The Commodities Modernization Act (2000), the Patriot Act, TARP, Obama’a ‘Recovery Act’, Obamacare and whatever other statist accommodating nightmare into the future.

They don’t “scrutinize” anything, always taking a politically expedient path to rush evermore corpofascist friendly legislation through, the trademark of a failing empire ruled by a terminally corrupt, compromised leadership.

I knew back then the money raised from the time of it’s passing to the time when benefits were to start in 2014 would be raided, spent and gone. One needs to only look at history to confirm this is what would happen. Guess what?

The illegal “Super Congress” is targeting Medicare as one of the major cuts in their trillion dollar package of cuts from the domestic spending budget. This same cut was cited by Obama as being a major part of the funding for his healthcare plan. So instead of healthcare, the money will now go to paying interest on debt to bankers. This leaves the Obamacare plan insolvent unless taxes are raised.
