When my parents and relatives do get to that age, I am ideally gonna be looking to take care of their medical needs along with healthy relatives - and hope that those in my family who can afford their own medical care when they get to be senior citizens will go ahead and pay for it themselves. As I will ideally plan to do in 40 years from now when i get to be that age. You still haven’t answered abotu choosing between having the gov’t cut back seriously on Medicare and Social Security or severely cutting back on military, national defense and on military anti terror operations (for example that could take place in Iran). Since again, at some point something will simply have to give, that is all there is to it.
Are you ok with the US letting China take over the role of leading superpower so that we can have medical care for all senior citizens - whether they can afford it or not?
I lived in a era when people were simply denied health care unless they paid up front or produced health insurance.
It is not an either or choice so give it up, or move to China where they practice your brand of medicine.
