I have absolutely no trouble with people having to make choices. Why should a person get a government subsidy and not pay it back? These people won't lose their assets for being on Medicare, they'll lose them for having Medicare pay their bills.

After all, it isn't really accumulated wealth unless one has paid their bills along the way.

I agree with you but the same principle should apply to wall street welfare crowd.

I think you mean medicaid”-that is what the masses think is “free” to everyone with no or little income, and obamacare has expanded that definition.

they don’t go after medicare, but they do medicaid (welfare medical care).

Medicare and Medicaid are different. Medicaid is a pure wealth transfer program. Medicaid patients have done nothing but exist and get sick. Medicare patients usually have paid into Medicare for decades.
