The rarely mentioned origins of Paul Ryan's and Ron Wyden's Medicare proposal in a debate subject to distortions on all sides
09/16/2010
To fully understand the developing U.S. Medicare reform proposal of Rep. Paul Ryan and Senator Ron Wyden, a look back at its origins. This includes work done at the Hoover Institution and by other think tanks on the liberal side on a way forward for Medicare that retains all the advantages of the current system and corrects its disadvantages in not reining in runaway costs, and moves gradually so that it can be improved. The vital element in their proposal is injecting choice and competition to control costs .

The two US Deficit Commissions in 2010 and the Deficit from Growing Health Care Costs
01/31/2008
Bowles-Simpson Deficit Commisssion proposals, critics say, did not adequately tackle the health care part of the US Deficit. Rivlin-Domenici Deficit Commission phases out the tax exclusion on employer-subsidized health care insurance. Both fall short in addressing the health care portion of the deficit.

Samuelson on the elderly as a protected class in the Social Security and Medicare debates of 2010-2013
03/30/2010
Samuelson says that not asking some sacrifice from seniors and leaving Social Security and Medicare untouched as even the Ryan proposal does, means shrinking other social programs, defense and investments in education and infrastructure. This will be damaging for the U.S. Both parties and expecially the Democrats who accuse the Republicans of running "grandma under the bus," are to blame for this fear of both sides to come to grips with the issues. See the Washington Post editorial on Vice president Biden's comment "I flat guarantee you, no changes to Social Security," as downright disheartening and irresponsible at best and political pandering at worst.

The Republican U.S. Budget proposal made by Paul Ryan in 2012
09/16/2010
Paul Ryan, chairman of the House Budget Committee, has outlined a bold proposal to bring the U.S. budget deficits down from the $1 trillion level of the last 3 years. It would bring changes to Medicare and Medicaid, and reduce the individual and corporate income tax levels from 35% to 25%. Medicare would become a premium support system with the government paying the premium for an array of private insurance plans, and Medicaid would become a block grant system.

New York Times 08/11/2012
We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
