first heard Dick Morris make this point. The main reason, electorally, that Obamacare is falling apart is that the elderly are rejecting in great numbers. Morris cites a poll in which elderly reject the plan by about 16 points. This is a massive political problem because folks over 65 have about a 70% voting attendance. About 30% of all health care expenses are spent on the last year of someone's life. So, it is the elderly that are the most affected by any health care reform idea. Frankly, the elderly are rejecting Obamacare with good reason.

Why?? It’s on euthanesia? What’s wrong with that? (sarc)
Obamacare for Seniors = A Few Stout Whacks on the Back of the Head
Do ya think those seniors are sorry they voted for him?
It’s won’t stop here.
Seniors, baby boomers and other pay attention. You worked 30+ years and saved and agonized over your IRA/ROTH/401K. Well that recent immigrant from some third world country or illegal with 6 kids deserves part of that.
Work like dogs for 40 years, they steal your wealth and tell you it’s time to die. Animal Farm to a T.
Why - because they don;t need seniors anymore to get elected and stay in power.
This is EXACTLY what the left has done for the past 15 years in the UK.
Seniors have worked all their lives and saved to ensure illegal aliens live the good life.
Politicians needed senior votes to win - NOT anymore. Obama figured that out.
Seniors social security, Medicare and retirement savings will be given to illegal aleins, SEIU/ACORN members. Redundant because SEIU is the illegal alien union.
Plenty of clueless seniors who voted for Obama will march to the death camps willingly.
Baby boomers are next.
No, it’s been seen since Hitler. That’s an overstatement. Socialized medicine, wherever its been around the world, makes these kinds of value judgments all the time. Officially or unofficially. The Inner Party folks get the best, the vast majority of the proles get crap.
Guess I’ll be going out with a bang. They can count on it.
You might end up murdered by the government, like Terri Schiavo.
Executed by government court order,in an inhumane,unconstitutional, tortuous manner, although she was never even accused nor convicted of any crime deserving of the death penalty.
Chickens coming home to roost?
Go to the ARRP website. Amazing.
