  10. Poll: Raising the eligibility age for Medicare

    Medicare may not be the third rail of American politics -- that distinction belongs to Social Security -- but politicians who alter it put their careers at risk. For proof, just look at how Republicans <a href="http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/05/25/us-usa-campaign-newyork-idUSTRE74O0HO20110525">lost a congressional seat</a> in a conservative upstate New York district in early 2011 after the Democratic underdog made an issue of the Medicare overhaul proposed by House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan (R-Wis.). One might also blame the Medicare provisions in the 2010 healthcare law -- particularly the reductions to Medicare Advantage subsidies -- for helping the GOP take over the House in that year's elections, although that was just one of many problems for Democrats back then.
