I don't know about anyone else, but I am glad that something is being done to address the issue.
Though the Democrats seem to be doomsayers and are constantly saying that the bill is going to cause the collapse of Medicare.
Will it? Who knows. At least something is being tried to fix the system. And I don't mean like the Democrats plan to just throw more money into it so it says afloat a few years longer for the Baby Boomers but goes bankrupt when my generation (Gen-X) becomes senior citizens. That really pissed me off when the Democrats unveiled that plan when Clinton was in office. Basically, take my money away from me, give it to the Baby Boomers, and then the system goes bankrupted when I would be old enough to draw from it myself.
