Privatize Medicare?
Rep Paul Ryan's plan to privatize Medicare and turn into a voucher system, is getting way too much positive coverage in the media. Please vote "no" on this WaPo poll: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/08/12/AR2010081204918.html?hpid=opinionsbox1

Then read Dean Baker's great response to this god awful plan: http://www.cepr.net/index.php/blogs/beat-the-press/fun-with-paul-ryan-and-the-washington-post
