Rationing care is what Obamacare is all about. I really wish that only those who voted for Obama would be denied care. Sadly, we all will be denied care in our later years. I have been paying into Medicare for nearly 5 decades so that the elderly would have to worry about healthcare. Now I will be denied care at the behest of this Government?? I HAVE PAID,IN ADVANCE, FOR MY MEDICAL CARE! If this Admin wants to give me back all the money I have paid into Medicare, that’s fine. I will use it to pay for my own medical care. If it runs out, fair enough. JUST GIVE IT BACK TO ME AND LET ME CHOOSE WHERE IT GOES!!

Got news for you, you didn’t pay for anything related to you.
Just like Social Security all you are doing is paying for those already on those programs.
There is no account with your name on it crediting you for Medicare payments.
All the Programs are going bust and those of us in the Baby Boom generation will face reduced benefits all the way around,

There isn't a person alive who has paid more than about $125,000 into Medicare, even if they started work the year it began and maxed out their income every year.

If I were President, I would buy your Medicare card back for $125K in an eyeblink, but.....

How far do you think that much money would take you if you had to pay for a bypass or a hip replacement at the hospital's full charges??
