Just like the wonderful track record the government has for fixing our schools. Government can't fix the problem. Government is the problem. To coin a phrase from Ronald Reagan. Using the government to fix problem is like using nitro glycerin to drive nails.

We do?

Anyone with more than three brain cells to rub together knows that though imperfect, Social Security-linked Medicare functioned financially for 50 years.

Medicaid, on the other hand, is a ginormous welfare program with a deceptive name chosen to create an equivalence with user-funded Medicare. The name is where the equivalence ends.

Medicaid attracted (or was intended to attract) 100% of the indolent, who never worked in their lives parasites, who immediately, like the leeches they are, attached themselves to the truly needy whom most American citizen net-taxpayers have aided and supported, for over a century though private charities.

No Federal government can exist without fraud. Private independent, free from government involvement of any kind, charites are virtually fraud free.

In the United States, and certainly every other country, Socialism, which has been creeping into the American consciousness for 50 years, is by definition incapable of tolerating charity, human nature being what it is.
For us, that has culminated with the Sanders phenomenon.

Even low or no information voters, can understand this : Careful what you wish for. The first target of a Socialist bankrupt country is welfare.

The second is the able-bodied idle.
The third (again human nature) is forced production, because the producers are prohibited from keeping any part of what they produce for themselves.

Of course, it would behoove the parasites to figure all this out sooner, rather than later, because after their support makes socialism the new paradise, it may take a hundred years to "fix" things. e.g. The Soviet Union.

Welcome to paradise.
You don't work, you don't eat.
You don't eat you die.
You steal? you end up in a forced labor camp' if you're lucky.

Rinse and repeat.
