NEW POLL OVERVIEW:<br />
----------------------------<br />
<br />
Governor Romney has outlined his plan to gradually delay Americans' eligibility for Medicare and Social Security at the Detroit Economic Club on last Friday. <br />
<br />
Romney's proposed changes for Medicare and Social Security would start in 2022. <br />
<br />
The plan proposals include:<br />
<br />
1. Starting in 2022 the plan would gradually increase the Medicare eligibility age by one month each year. <br />
2. Both programs would be indexed to longevity so that they increase only as fast as life expectancy.<br />
3. Under current law, the age for collecting full Social Security benefits is gradually rising from 65 to 67. Medicare is available at age 65. In both cases, the age is set in law, and Romney<span>'</span><span>s suggestion that it be tied automatically to increases in the life expectancy of Americans would mark a major change. <br />
