Americans Reject GOP Medicare Plan


A new Bloomberg Poll finds that Americans by a 57% to 34% margin believe they would be worse off with Rep. Paul Ryan's Medicare plan.

Key finding: 58% of independents, a critical voting bloc in most elections, say they would be worse off.

"That's likely to encourage Democrats to bank their success in next year's presidential and congressional races on tying Republicans to the Medicare plan, which was passed by the Republican-controlled House on April 15."
