We’re not talking about Medicare here. It is Medicaid, usually for those who aren’t (are not) eligible for Medicare,.. (i.e., no Medicare contributions from their paychecks) or just plain poor with no history, no assets (supposedly), etc.

Medicaid is government charity. It should be paid back if there are assets....

The is no such thing as government charity.

Everything government does is done at the barrel of a gun.
