and replace it with a system of cradle-to-grave savings accounts which would be funded with $2,000 a year in government contributions.

See, this is why I don't care for Carson. He has no concept of true liberty or the proper role of the federal government.

Medicare and Medicaid should be abolished. Let the states help seniors and those who are disabled, and because they can't print money, they will look for ways to innovate, such as letting private insurance bid on contracts and charity organizations assist.

I have made sure I always had medical insurance. I went years without a claim. Yet I paid thousands, tens of thousands in premiums, for over 30 years. As I have been self-employed, guess who paid my premiums, along with 15%+ self-employment taxes totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars, part of which is meant to fund Medicare, and part of which is meant to fund disabilty insurance?

I recently became medically disabled. My main treatment costs $70000 - 80000 per year. If I am lucky enough for a “cure,” I will require a hospitalization and procedure costing around $100,000, as well as $25000 -$30000 of drugs per year. Along with frequent doctors visits and occasional trips to the hospital.

This is what I need to stay alive. I am currently on Medicare as the government has declared me legally disabled.

Given that I paid for others for decades, what is owed to me?
