Anyone under the misconception that any government agency provides “free” anything is stupid.

“Free” stuff from the government just means the government charges a fee to rob one’s neighbors.

Yes, Medicare and Medicaid is a real problem but only caused by a small percentage of the population.

1. If most of those eligible only went to a Doctor when actually needed, the costs would be much smaller.

2. Forget all those advertisements and pushes toward preventive-medicine. They cost much more than only seeing a doctor when needed.

3. Costs are absorbed by all of the younger tax payers - please don’t go to Doctors without a good reason.

4. If the elder actually would take some responsibility for their medical care, things would not be in such a mess.

There are those that need chronic care and that is understandable, but most need no such care - minimal is the ideal. Can’t understand why the elderly would continue to soak their grandchildren for their benefits. I think it is time for us - the older generation to either start paying our own way (as possible) or quit complaining...

Time for all you elderly who think that you’ve paid for Medicare and Social Security to speak up and declare that you deserve your benefits!

Come on folks, don’t you think that you deserve your protections regardless of the condition of the country?

Awaiting your reasonable responses.
