This not a game. This is not a staring contest between political parties. This is not a grab for partisan power. This is a soon to be do or die mandatory restructuring of Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security to establish sustainable solvency for these programs that so many American's depend on. It is impossible to leave Medicare, Medicaid, or Social Security exactly as they are today. Without changes in these programs, there will be the financial collapse of American government. If that happens then we all suffer serious impacts.
