[QUOTE="It will be fine, post: 2938104, member: 55017"] This is easily one of the most intellectually dishonest arguments I've ever heard. 1. Everyone pays into Medicare, it's an earned benefit. They paid for it, they lived long enough to collect it, they earned it. 2. What's your proposed alternative? Most people on Medicare are unemployed, so they wouldn't be covered under an employer plan. How much do you think a policy for an 85 year old man on the individual market would cost? $50-60k/year? I don't think many "wealthy" elderly could cover that. With all their subsequent unpaid bills how much would costs increase for the rest of the population? [/QUOTE]
