So nothing concrete then. I've read the statement and it doesn't explain anything. Though, it appears everyone has backed away from privatization from the go-go fast days of the early aughts.

The way I see it they can either cut entitlements and piss off their retired voters or they can make the young pay more and piss off their working base.

By their statements, Republicans like Ryan say they want to save health care and social security for all. But by their actions, they just want to kill those things. As far as I see, they never work on the replacements. Like the dozens of votes to kill Obama care. Please also spend time on doing the new thing. You control the house, senate, and white house. You can pass legislation now. Just negotiate with 8 democrats in the senate and you can pass anything. But they don't, because they don't really want to replace these things.
