I am for medicare, exactly as Schakowsky says. She is correct and telling the truth

@sx200ser You are begging for a headache if you keep giving the raw deal to that cinofone sob. Trust me. The sob will not look anything up because the sob knows it will mean he/she'd have to tie himself in knots to weasel out of saving face. The fucker has not a reasonable bone in his/her body.

Maybe Ryan and the rest of his nigger (GOP) inbred buddies could spend a little time trying to creat jobs in this country instead of taking more of our hard earned money and giving it to his rich corporate slave owners! These niggers gotta go-all of them!

[Krifko]

Ah, I see American youth are also made slaves of the baby-boom generation, just like us Europeans.

Medicare/Medicaid doesn't mean it's free. I'm disabled and deal with it both ways. Depends on whether or not you're able to get a supp ins or MediGap policy. Medicaid for me meant a mo/share of cost of $916 before benefits would kick in. On monthly income of $1100. There are copays for dr's and spec and Rx's. Not suggesting that there aren't people who don't greatly benefit from the system in many ways. But really weary of people throwing up the same old same old as an excuse for an opinion.

of course another Marxist trying to make everyone dependent on government.

[MrGotTallent]

In 2002 nearly 40.5 million Americans were enrolled in Medicare,that enough votes to make anyone president (you get what im saying )

@sx200ser Social security is a giant ponzi scheme. If you actually had invested all of what you paid into social security instead, you'd have a much, much wealthier retirement. It's basically just used as a big fund by the government to make their deficits look smaller - during the Clinton years they took about 2.5 trillion from social security and just used it for the federal budget to make it look as though they had budget surpluses instead of deficits.

@sx200ser The elderly are the richest demographic in America, so don't be so sure that they're starving or dying in the street. I'm all for helping out my fellow man, but that's what charity is for. If you compare government welfare to charity, charities are far more efficient at delivering services with lower overheads than government.

Health care costs should be a small percentage of what they are now. If insurance companies are running at too high a profit, start your own.

[sx200ser]

@cincofone yet we do have figures on private insurance company profits via tax returns. look up there profits. I never used food stamps but lets come back to that, do you want poor people to starve, or elderly to die on the street because that's what happened before medicare, medicaid, social security passed, I can't tell you what to think and shit, but 2015 UN millennium summit goals kick in, research that US signed on
