Despite what all the “official” liberal historians say, LBJ was the worst US President ever.
A stupid no-win war strategy and an insane launching of unsustainable social programs.
Plus—the guy was a total jerk and a crook.
I still say it was Carter who was the worst President in history. What a doofus he was. His energy policy was to put on a sweater and nobody should forget about the gas ration days....I hated that so badly and I was 8! Could you imagine how stressful it was for the adults who had to work.....HORRID MAN!!!!
The problem with Medicare is that it keeps growing.
In 1970 Medicare was 3.2% of the federal budget.
In 1990 Medicare was 7.8% of the federal budget.
In 2010 Medicare was 13.1% of the federal budget.
By 2030 Medicare will be over 25% of the federal budget.
