What's wrong with phasing out a program that by some estimates, is besieged by upwards of $120 billion a year in fraud? Clearly the program, as constructed is going to go bankrupt - everyone agrees with this. Seems to me the Ryan plan offers a way out. We allow those who currently have Medicare to keep it, but phase it out for younger workers. Obviously, as I've said repeatedly, this will only work if we move to address the costs of health care, but it's a start for Chissakes!
