I think you are entitled to get $130,000 in health care from the government.
First of all, WTH asked you? FDR and all his progressive pals set up the system - I had NO choice.
Second, I've been on Medicare for almost 5 years and my medical costs are far less than $5K. Where do I get a refund?
Last and not least, does your $130K gubmint allowance include the VA medical care I earned while spending over a year in combat in Vietnam?

Thank you for your service (I served too, but not in combat), but that does not change the fact that Medicare is going broke and within two decades there will be nothing left to pay what was "promised".

Now if you are in favor of a big tax increase on your kids and grandkids to cover your medical expenses for the rest of your life, you are welcome to say so. But do not pretend that there is some magic pot of money somewhere that will prevent the Medicare trust fund going tits up.
