GOP endorses Obamacare for America's Seniors!

  For all those who want to see the repeal of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA)- by you AKA Obamacare, do you realize that this is exactly what the GOP budget bill just passed in the House yesterday calls for for America's senior citizens. Do you realize that when you retire, you won't be part of a company's group healthcare insurance plan. Do you realize that Medicare, the single-payer (the Federal Gov't) plan that all retired Americans use as health insurance is eliminated under the GOP House budget passed yesterday. It calls for retired people to get a coupon (a subsidy) to buy individual insurance in the private maket - this is exactly what the PPACA does for working age people not covered by an employer group health insurance plan.
 
How can you be against Obamacare and support the House GOP budget plan?
