What is the scam here? I need some money. The government has it.
Everyone does it. ACORN does it. Wall Street does it. Fannie and Freddie do it.
It is not a scam when you know what is going on and agree to it any way.

And every day in the lunch room I have to watch motor scooter commercials about how Medicare will pay for everything!

More proof that the government is SO large that it is impossible to oversee.
If government doesn’t begin to shrink, we are done for.

The funny thing about entitlement programs is that they are designed to be taken advantage of. So why is the government surprised when people or groups do take advantage of them?

I hear yah PB. Especially that old geezer!!!
Medicare pays an average of $5,200 per wheelchair, but add-on accessories can bring the total up to $10,000, making it one of the most expensive items for which Medicare will reimburse.

2003 scandal on scooter fraud. Don’t know if it has been stopped entirely. Probably not;(

motor scooter commercialsI've seen numerous people using these scooters as their primary mode of transportation. On one hand it's sad to see but these people are getting a 'free' scooter and using it like a car. I'm sure they just go get a new free scooter after they beat their old one up.

Propaganda window dressing intended to prop-up Obamacare.
(fits too neatly with the ad running, telling Senior Citizens that “the new law allows us to go after fraud, to STRENGTHEN Medicare”.)

I am sure Washington Compost’s David Ignatius knows and will be writing about it as soon as his share of the Armenian Mafias take is safely in an offshore account.

Doing research on that topic - I interviewed several residents of a nursing home (not all elderly). A majority said they wished they had waited before surrendering their lives to their skooter dependancy. They were becoming more obese and helpless.
Interesting.

There has to be gangster clerks on the inside processing & approving these “claims.”
