Well, I'll ask again:

Can you name one judge or one member of the House or the Senate who is willing to claim that Medicare is unconstitutional? I can't think of even one - not one.

We have a huge and growing glut of seniors right now and they vote. Maybe when they're gone, our politicians and judges will take a fresh look at the constitutional limits of federal power. Until then, the federal government will continue to be up to its neck in our healthcare system unless the people themselves boycott that system to force change.

Who cares what judges or members of Congress think about Medicare?

I have already posted 5 excerpts from Supreme Court case opinions which reasonably clarify that the states have never delegated to the federal government, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to establish federal programs like Medicare.

So are you choosing to ignore what the Supreme Court has said about this issue because Constitution-ignoring judges and members of Congress are telling you what you want to hear?

Huh? At what point will the U.S. no longer have a significant number of seniors?
