Too many retired and soon-to-be-retired persons have paid too much in Medicare payroll taxes to deny any benefit from those payments for them.
But the plan requires reforms from the ground up, and an enrollment cut-off-age set (ending new enrollments after a certain date).
For our grand-children we need to encourage the establishment of private “buy-in while of working age, health insurance in retirement plans”, and encourage employer and employee contributions to such private plans.
We need to be sure that our grand children are not repeating our public obligation mistakes, so that they NOT bequeath debt-mountains to THEIR grand children.
OK if he raises the age to collect HOW does that HELP RIGHT NOW?
