The economic ignorance of so many in this country never ceases to amaze me. How can any reasonable person understand the “medicare for all” means ending “medicare as we know it” for the elderly who have paid taxes for it all their lives?
It angers me to see folks attempt to pull this sort of thing.
It also angers me when some on the right make statements about how unfair the elderly are, when the elderly of today were forced into playing the game and abiding by the rules they couldn’t control.
I do think SS and Medicare need to be privatized, but it needs to be done for people just entering the work force now, and structured to help them be much more secure than our seniors are today.
I remain convinced that can take place, and the sooner the better.
In a little over two decades, we could already be half-way to totally converting those programs.
This would prevent the government from gaming for votes based on it’s policies for SS and Medicare.
Privatize it now. Lets end this nonsense.
