Medicare Is A Scam!

It is a scam from the word “go.” The first thing they tell you is that Medicare pays 80% of you medical care costs, but they don’t. It’s a LIE. The first thing they do is take the bills and cut them in half. Then they pay that half. Which makes that “80% only 40%! It is up to you to pay the rest, at a time in your life when you have a lot less money than ever before, because you can’t work, usually because of the infirmity old age imposes upon you. So you have to spend more of that short supply of money on “supplemental insurance,” which ALSO does not pay all of it, so then you have to pay even more money, out of pocket—if your pocket holds any. I don’t know who designed this system, but it is unnecessarily complicated, leading to the “need” for many highly-paid bureaucrats to interpret it. Certainly many of those “old folks” can’t understand it, especially those who can’t remember how to zip up their pants after using the bathroom. The very day Medicare began, it imposed an immediate $20 million (or more) bill on the taxpayer, payable immediately. Even at HALF what they say they’re paying. (Just common sense)
