A business case could be made for setting Medicare
as a 10 year contract, to be initiated at any time,
but when it’s done, it’s done

If you initiate it at 75, it goes until 85
If you initiate it at 21, it goes until 31

Then you are on your own...

Then you are on your own...

Does that mean we only have to pay into for 10 years?

If so I should be getting a boatload of money back.

“A business case for only 10 years of Medicare.”

I’d prefer to see more patriotism and fewer corrupt politicians on the dole to crony capitalism. They should be restoring and defending America and our borders. Instead of these puppets taking care of our own elderly, they are showboating and wasting our military power in the ME and tying to impress and take care of the world with a Chinese credit card.

So do we still have to contribute for our whole working lives?
And, if not, how can a 21 year old get anything since he can't have put much of anything into the system?
