Earlier this week the National Committee shared a list of “Campaign Codewords” to watch out for this election season. Here’s what some of the phrases they highlighted (and one of our own) will really mean when you hear them.
When You Hear… |
| It REALLY Means… |
Reform/Save | → | Privatize it! |
Raise the Retirement Age | → | Cut Benefits |
“Vouchers” | → | Privatize it! |
Medicaid Block Grants | → | Cut Payments and Access |
“Premium Support” | → | Privatize it! |
“Chained CPI” | → | Stingier Cost of Living Formula |
“Increase Consumer Choice” | → | Privatize it! |
“Means Testing” | → | Turn Medicare into welfare |
Don’t forget Medicare this election season!
