The discussion of taxes on the ridge is simply a way for those who face the situation and choose to act irresponsibly in hope of one more term.

We have the choice of doing something now or having nothing later. I prefer to take action now rather than having nothing later. The Ryan plan is the first to face this situation in a realistic way. It may not be perfect, but it is the only plan on the table at this time.
Exactly right. The main thing to know is that the Democrats have no stated plan to concerning Medicare, other than demagoguery. The Ryan plan is the only plan proposed to actually try and save Medicare.

The only thing that maybe rates as a Democrat plan, or scheme really, is to roll everyone into rationed care under the new and massive ObamaCare plan beginning in 2014.
