What I can’t figure out is why the Medicare for all push? Does the younger generation think Medicare is free? Far from it...we are average retired couple and pay $135 every month for basic part B coverage. Then between us we pay $460 for part B supplement, plan F. Then we pay a combined $70mo, part D prescription drug coverage ...very basic. My wife and I pay $700mo total for Medicare premiums. You could cut it in half, and young people still wouldn’t want to pay it. If you can’t see it or touch it they won’t buy in. They’d much prefer to pay the money for a new IPhone and maybe a car payment. The attitude is nobody will be turned away at an emergency room, insurance or not.
[[Does the younger generation think Medicare is free?]]
Yes- deep down they probably know it isn’t- but they won’t allow themselves to think about it- they are unattached to reality- They are hoping beyond hope that the ‘rich will support everyone’- they are the me me me generation- the ‘galutes’ like Paul Muni said in one of his movies- unwilling to work for themselves, always looking for the quick easy $$- a generation that sits around complaining about the rich, jealous of their riches, and who won’t go out and earn anything the old fashioned way- through good hard honest labor
And sadly the left wanna keep our borders open to people coming here for ‘free stuff’ nearly 70% of those that come across our borders go immediately on welfare and government assistance, some to the tune of $45,000 per year- free housing, free education, free healthcare etc-
It’s a cancer and character deficit that will cripple this nation
I just got on Medicare. I pay 126 for my part B supplemental and 24 for Prescription drugs. My wife is not 65 yet so she uses a company called Medishare, a Christian based organization. No matter how look at it, healthcare is not cheap.
