>> i need to take this i need this. and the scooter. >> giveback. >> did don't normally grab things but because of medicare and social security government takes money from the young and gives it to people may age and older. and most older people are richer. look at this chart people my age have the average net worth nearly double in 27 times the 30 year olds have that yet they are taxed to pay for my health care. this is why i say americans should cut entitlements then medicare and social security will suck every penny from young people like jonathan.

obviously you want spending reduced but at the wrestle institute they say the government should spend more. more? are you kidding? >> this is house social insurance works. with young people regardless of might be cyrus someday they will not be young people they get older every year someday they will be old people baby retirement security and health care. john: we take too much. >> is sustainable if we don't do anything with medicare will bankrupt the government. if we don't it will bankrupt every individual person. like turning medicare into a voucher increases health care cost. >>. >> those think tanks confused me.

to pay us but they did not. >> that is why tse should be federal programs. the trials of any city well come and go with the economy. detroit used to be a powerhouse. john: but politicians federal or low coal or good or responsible? >> we could have a productive future when we totally meet the requirements. >> all of them say health care cost or if we don't do it they will bankrupt every individual person. we're going hard to cut costs for medicare which is the right solution. >> the way you cut cost is by injecting competition into the system. because we don't have th same competition.
