Because we aren’t trying to pay more for boomer treatment, we are already bankrupting ourselves with payments for Medicare and SS
Not right now it’s not bud. It’s paid with new tax dollars, Ponzi scheme style. My millennial dollars are funding your retirement dollar for dollar, it isn’t going into a fund for me. You were robbed by Nixon, and now you rob me. Medicare is 10x cheaper than my coverage, subsidized by us all. It won’t be there for me or my age cohort, an honest assessment and you would come to the same conclusion. So, since you were robbed you are happy to keep your hands in my pockets, hoping to pass the buck. Problem is, we aren’t replacing ourselves and with an inverted pyramid of demographics, the scheme ends soon.
For how free market conservative boomers claim to be they sure like their government funded pensions and healthcare. Don’t appreciate the name calling. If we are going to get there I’ll just call you an ostrich with your head in the sand or Lloyd Christmas stocking your fingers in your ears saying you can’t hear me
I’m saying I’d you are free market then yes the elderly should pay their own way on healthcare. It’s the free market way. Many will suffer but the country wouldn’t implode from a currency debasement. I’m not blaming I’m saying it’s niece that we should pay even more and calling out the entitled attitude of the OP. Maybe insurance isn’t the solution and guess what people get sick and die, we can’t escape death. We clearly can’t subsidize millions in medical treatment for the elderly, it is bankrupting us. The argument is the same for welfare; I’m sympathetic to the fact that you didn’t set yourself up but it’s irresponsible as a nation to fund how much we do. We are 30Tvim debt and have over 160T in unfounded liabilities. Knowing this: op wants more. That’s why I push back so hard.
