    Medicare for all means raiding the Medicare Trust Fund to finance Medicaid for all

    SEE: ‘Medicare for All’ Is Really ‘Medicaid for All’


    ”I hear conservatives using that term too. They should stop immediately! Not only is using the opposition’s lexicon a stupid political mistake, but a close look at Sanders’s bill (S-1804, “The Medicare for All Act of 2017”) shows that it has much more in common with Medicaid — the health-insurance welfare program for the poor — than it does Medicare so beloved by seniors:”



    If the Democrat Leadership gets its way, they will raid the seniors Medicare Trust Fund which seniors paid into, and use the funds to provide a welfare type health care system for all.


    Seniors had better wake up to the tricks of the Democrat Party Leadership.

    Let us not forget it was Nancy Pelosi who SAID about Obamacare: “We have to pass the Bill so that you can find out what is in it” ___ Voting democrat will make her Speaker of the House

    That's exactly what it means. We need the US Senate to pass the "erase the lines" bill to repeal health insurance from the McCarran-Ferguson Act. It passed the House over a year and a half ago and has been stuck in the Senate Judiciary Committee ever since. COME ON CHUCK GRASSLEY, get that bill out of your committee and on to the floor of the US Senate for a vote.

    Why should insurance companies be exempt from the Sherman Anti-Trust Act if regulated by a state? That creates state boundaries in what should be a nationwide market. It's the stupidest most anti-capitalist thing ever. GET RID OF IT and set our companies loose to have HUUUGE pools and much, much better plans and lower insurance rates across the board for everyone.

    President Trump warns Democrat’s health care proposal will hurt Seniors!

    See: Democrats ‘Medicare for All’ plan will demolish promises to seniors


    “I also made a solemn promise to our great seniors to protect Medicare. That is why I am fighting so hard against the Democrats’ plan that would eviscerate Medicare. Democrats have already harmed seniors by slashing Medicare by more than $800 billion over 10 years to pay for Obamacare. Likewise, Democrats would gut Medicare with their planned government takeover of American health care”.


    The bottom line is, if Democrats take control over Congress, they will loot the Senior’s Medicare Trust Fund to provide what amounts to be Medicaid for all, not Medicare for all.


    Forewarned is forearmed.

    President Trump has your back and he needs a Republican controlled Congress to stop the dirty tricks of the Democrat Party Leadership.

    American citizens are sick and tired of being made into tax-slaves to finance a maternity ward for the poverty stricken populations of other countries who invade America’s borders to give birth.

    See Why ‘Medicare for all’ means deadly trouble for seniors

    August 8, 2017


    ”Senators took the first step last week, announcing a bill to expand Medicare for people age 55 and up. Boomers beware. These schemes will push people 65 and older to the back of the line for health care.


    It’s already happening in the United Kingdom, where the government-run health-care system is rationing treatment for Boomers, with deadly results. Faced with a budget crisis, Britain’s National Health Service is limiting the procedures seniors need most: hip and knee replacements, cataract operations, angioplasty and colonoscopies. It’s a preview of what American Boomers can expect under a “Medicare for all” system.”


    Now, just imagine if the Democrat Leadership gets what it wants and expands Medicare to all, do you really think seniors will be able to compete with the newly born and children for the limited heath care resources which Medicare for all will bring?


    Seniors had better wake up and smell the coffee ___ it is being poisoned by the Democrat Party Leadership.

    American citizens are sick and tired of being made into tax-slaves to finance the economic needs of millions of poverty stricken, poorly educated, low and unskilled aliens who have invaded America’s borders.
