Seniors and healthcare reform

My latest beef is with seniors, who are protesting healthcare reform more loudly these days, according to multiple media reports. In fact, they are the demographic most opposed to reform. It's especially ironic that they should object, considering they already receive government healthcare. Of course, their concern is that they may lose some of their government bennies in order to pay for extending coverage to more people. And who is egging them on? None other than the Heritage Foundation, as reported here. It boggles the mind - libertarians who want to reduce government involvement are trying to get those who benefit from government involvement to resist reform. I can't even express it properly. I really just want to vomit most of the time these days.
