Educational link of the day:
Why Medicare for all=Medicare for none
Short comment: there's a reason people are duking it out over Social Security reform right now -- because it's relatively easy. There is going to be some real ugliness over Medicare reform. That dumbass drug benefit passed a while back will probably be the proximate cause of the Medicare reform debate, but even without that huge addition to costs a showdown was coming on the near horizon.
My own advice: stay healthy. And hope whatever ailments you do have are treatable by currently existing medicine and procedures.
