I think I’ve mentioned on here before I’m stuck posting on mobile, so I’ve been putting this off, but if anyone else likes looking for original source material and FOIA stuff, here’s a list of links to different FOIA landing sites for different organizations and agencies.
^ There’s new uploads to this since I last checked it, apparently.

These are the big agencies I know of and have been trying to research. However, if there’s another agency you want to look into, you can usually get to an FOIA page if you just Google: [agency name] FOIA
And, because I stumbled upon them trying to understand what NSICG means, here’s two documents that give me the heeby jeebies:
FISA Court order and opinion about efforts to restart the NSA metadata collections
If Medicare is the be-all-end-all, why do people need Supplement Plans? That seem to be multiplying as less and less gets covered by the government? It’s like double taxation, IMO.
Why does Medicare coverage, overall, kind of suck? Just like Medicaid?
Why should you be forced to pay into a system when you could make a better financial return on your investment in the free market?
I know more and more people who are continuing to work past 65 because they need private insurance as their secondary. Even Congress gets better insurance coverage throughout their miserable lives after retirement.
Furthermore, it seems there’s more and more press releases coming from the Justice Department about providers committing millions of dollars worth of Medicare fraud. We wind up funding those court cases with our taxes, too.
To me, Medicare is just another way to steal money from hard working Americans and giving them a sack of 💩 in return instead of good coverage as promised when Medicare first started. (I am beginning to think it was a scam when initially implemented, but I know it’s operating as a damn scam now.)
Why not let people get their SS payments back so tax payers can use that money on actually beneficial services instead of lining the federal coffers with even more of our hard earned funds? Or working on a different, less bloated system?
I agree with his point about bailing out corrupt global insurance companies, but I disagree on Medicare.
