“If the notion that Medicare recipients are simply “getting back what they paid in” is false then where is the money coming from? Simply, the excess received is being borrowed from younger generations and the cost is more than we can bear.”
Unsustainable. As all excursions into socialism become.
What I’m waiting for ... is the younger crowd saying “Just get out of our way and DIE!” Then they can start forming the “death panels” with no one over 30 years old ... LOL ...
That’s about the only solid solution I can see ... “Just DIE!”
Otherwise the older people are going to consume more resources. There’s no way around that ... you either put them out of their misery, or, they continue taking more and more of those resources, living to a ripe old age. The “just die” part can be achieved by withholding medical treatment.
