As scary as the SS deficit is, medicare (and other gov funded healthcare) is going to be worse. IF we/Trump can convert more part time jobs to full time and add more jobs period, that will help extend the SS problem for a while longer. But reductions in benefits, tax increases, or both are coming for SS/Medicare at some point in the not so distant future. The money simply isn’t there.

All we have to do to reduce Health Care costs is to enforce the Sherman Anti-Trust Act and the Clayton Acts to break up all the medical monopolies. Health care costs could and would drop almost 80%. All hospitals and doctor offices will have to have posted prices.
