She is Half right,seniors can keep their own health care as Obama says ,IF THEY CAN AFFORD IT,which they wont be able to,because of the Massive increases in Premiums due to all the Mandated Tests that Obamacare will require,then the seniors will have no Choice ,just like everyone else. Michelle you dont have to be so dramatic looking for conspiracies its right there in front of all our eyes,just show the videos of Obama saying it in his own speeches,he said we cant get to single payer all at once,it will happen in incremental steps as we are seeing now

—Well, she said it in a speech, but yeah- I completely agree that showing the videos of Obama admitting that a single payer plan is the endgame is a great idea. Plus, there’s the 500B in future cuts to Medicare to help fund Obamacare.

“additional corroboration” ???

This was a big news item about two years ago. Obama gutted something called the Medicare Advantage plan , by taking 500,000 billion out of it, and putting it into some kind of Obamacare slush fund. As I remember, part of the motive was political payoff intended to force people to switch over to an inferior AARP sponsored plan.

Exactly.

Then you have Medicare’s own trustees stating that Medicare will be bankrupt soon under the current rate. And where’s Obama’s plan to address this problem?

And what else is anybody supposed to think if Medicare goes bankrupt, and Obamacare is all that we are left with?

“and Obamacare is all that we are left with?”

Our leaders have all ready taken care of themselves. They know they will not be “blessed” with Obamacare. Even if there are no doctors left in the U.S. year the politicians can always jet set in taxpayer funded congressional 737’s for treatment in Canada and Europe.

The rest of us will muddle through, and once all the lawyers are dead from starvation, doctors will reappear. You’ll walk into an office and see doctors smiling again, with no medicare accountability forms to fill out. There will be a beautiful nurse with a big ass taking temperatures and giving candy to the kids and doing all the typing. That’s the way it was once upon a time. I was there.
