People need to face the fact that congress doesn’t really want to fix things.

After all, if they fix something, they no longer have a club to beat voters with in the next election.

It certainly looks like you have a point. With the present systems of Medicare and Medicaid being now in direct conflict or competition with Obama Care, it is difficult to see how someone can complain about the demise of medicare especially when more than a half trillion dollars was removed from Medicare to “pay” for Obama Care.

How many folks are reading front page news about the demise of Medicare? I just got a letter from my congresswoman telling me that medicare needs fixing so it will not be lost for seniors. Just how many seniors wanted to be stuffed into medicare at age 65, anymore than being stuffed into Obama care without any recourse or choice.

By adding Obama care to the mix, government has jeopardized Medicare, Medicaid, and Obama Care programs IMHO. In reality government has no mandate or Constitutional authority to be engaged in the medical business or a thousand other things it is engaged in and now we are faced with the ultimate financial jeopardy by virtue of fiscal insanity in Washington, DC.

Frankly Scarlett, I’m ready for Medicare, Medicaid, and Obama Care to be declared unconstitutional and the real fix of reality to make an appearance. I guess that choice isn’t very comfortable for “We the People”. What it comes down to is this: A Republic if you can keep it, or Health Care. Now there are a couple of choices.
