Senate Republicans Play Scrooge this Christmas

Published by Daniel Cody at 9:55 am under Politics

By a vote of 51-50, the Republican controlled Senate today voted to cut funding for Medicare, Medicaid, student loan programs, and more.

Even though the cost of health care continues to skyrocket, payments under Medicare will be frozen at existing levels for the next year under the new budget plan. So if you’re poor or can’t afford medical insurance, make sure you don’t get sick this year. Merry Christmas from the Republican party.

Later today, they’ll be voting to open up drilling in the Alaskan National Wildlife Preserve, any bets on screwing the elderly, the poor, and the environment all in one day?
