No, no improvement at all. So seniors who have Medicare now are worse off than before when they had to fend for themselves. Solid analysis.
Serious question. Do you ever get tired of spewing bullshit out of your face day after day?
Yes.. in terms of amount paid .vs what is received... they are worse off than if they would have used the same money, joined groups of other seniors to buy into a group insurance plan, shopped around, knew what they were paying, etc... I watch my grandmother shell out hundreds and hundreds and hundreds each and every month to the god awful medicare.. they don't know the actual cost of anything.. they just write checks like some ghetto punk trying to make it rain in a strip club..
They would be MUCH better off if I would be able to put her as a dependent on a plan I could shop for in a system without the restrictions and regulations... being able to pay for preventative care from a doctor and using insurance for emergency and catastrophic care... seeing if the plan negotiated by my HOA is better than the one negotiated by my employer or better than the one negotiated by a group of military vets or better than the one negotiated by the Mickey Mouse club etc etc etc... having law where it NEEDS to be and SHOULD be, requiring full disclosure of charges, ensuring that people cannot be refused as customers if they are willing to pay, allowing free trade of the services across state lines, and bringing about tort reform...
You sir, are a winger, an idiot, and spew more bullshit than almost anyone (nobody can match a Black_Label or rdummy)
HAHAHAHA, did you really just suggest that seniors should band together and shop for insurance together on the open market? Please tell me that's what you just said.
What profit driven insurance company in their right mind will give seniors insurance at any sort of affordable rate? Seniors are the biggest liability group and thus the most expensive to ensure. Nice idea genius. Holy fuck you literally doubled down on retarded.
Like I asked before. Do you ever get tired of just saying the dumbest shit possible??
Competition brings prices down, not monopoly nor hidden price structures.. not taking others, putting things thru a government bureaucracy, and then providing a 'service'
Holy fuck, figured you skip over adding seniors to a FAMILY plan that the FAMILY can shop for with less regulation... figures you skip over paying out of pocket for preventative care or a care plan that is open on pricing rather than the bullshit hidden crap we have now where a cast for a broken arm runs in the 1000's thru the system
The system is broken do to more and more of these government interferences, regulations, and 'offerings' than anything else.. when what you hear from doctors and medical equipment providers is that you don't need to know a price, medicare will just pay for it, should scare the shit out of anyone..
