Oh, and the cuts to Medicare Advantage are today's headline on The Hill:

http://thehill.com/blogs/healthwatch/medicare/202702-obamas-new-healthcare-dilemma

Health care is bankrupting the nation - Medicare and Medicaid alone consume a majority of the Federal budget:

People who think their retirement accounts will not be consumed by this looming disaster are smoking something.

Medicare is also no longer paying for a huge percentage of medicines and a smaller percentage of care, making it a tax instead of a health insurance. So if you pay over a $100 for Medicare deducted auto by government, then you have to pay full price for the medicines and a larger part of the physician and hospital bill....your insurance is no longer insurance but an additional tax.

That cost is to make up the shortfall of the trillion dollars Obama took for Obama Care. And that’s not even the Advantage program cuts, no one wins here but the government overspending idiots.
