When the REpublicans claim that Obamacare takes $500 billion from Medicare, they
intend to scare seniors into thinking their benefits are being cut. There is no truth to this whatsoever.
That $500 billion is a cut in payments made to providers for fraudulent and unneccessary charges. In actuality it is a cut in the cost of Medical care. Medicare annually receives more federal money each year. There is no cut.
The LIE is a blatant attempt to SCARE and FOOL seniors into thinking that the Obamas Affordable Care ACt will hurt them rather that help them which it does with free preventive care and additional services.
There are real sources for this information. It is not half truth or inuendo. Check it out yourselves.
