Actually it's just another attempt to destroy Medicare.

In what way is shifting USPS Retirees over to Medicare like the rest of the US Retirees an attempt to destroy Medicare?

Like Congress which had to go onto the ACA for Healthcare, why shouldn't the USPS Retirees go onto Medicare?

The USPS workers pay into the Medicare fund, so what's your problem with the Retirees utilizing Medicare when they hit 65?

Although from what I just read, there are about 20% of USPS workers who don't pay into Medicare, preferring the USPS Retirees Healthcare plan instead. So take the funding from the about to be obsolete USPS Retirees Healthcare fund and make the catch-up payment into Medicare for that 20%.
