That said, yes, we need to look at adjusting Medicare. I suggest we simply open it up to people 55 and over, for a huge cash influx.

surely you jest. medicare is outrageous, with only part a included if you have forty credits...otherwise, a alone is over 500 per month. that only covers hospitalization, with deductibles per incident, not per year. part b costs extra, that is for doctor care, also expensive...you have to buy supplements to pay deductibles, with plan f paying the most...if you can afford plan f that is...
and the hosp deductible per event? equal to the price of three pints of blood...one pint can cost 2500.
most insurance has a yearly deductible, but not medicare.
