I agree, it is not like Bill Gates is worried about working at Publix when he retires to supplement his S.S.
There also needs to be reforms in the medical billing. The problem is 3 fold, one the hospitals over charging(but fraud does get you elected governor), lawyers suing everyone, and the insurance companies price fixing. Those items need to be addressed as well.
As I've said many times before, a true socialized health care program, providing health care to every citizen, would eliminate the need for both Medicare and Medicaid. Fraud, misunderstanding of complex rules and regulations, extremely slow payment for services, and greedy insurance companies are the crux of the problems with Medicare/Medicaid.
The problem is each one of those groups make it rain in D.C while watching our elected officials wiggle on the pole. You ain't seen nothing yet, thanks to the Supreme Court selling out our country to what ever Corporation has the deepest pockets. You and I are not represented in our government and until so, will constantly be bent over with our pants around our ankles without the common courtesy of a reach around. We have no hope unless we go all Farrah Fawcett, Buring Bed style on our politicians.
Something else I've said a million times. Get rid of lobbyists and influence peddlers. Establish a limit on the amount of money used to finance a campaign, do away with political ads, provide free televised debates focusing on the issues.

Instead of gasoline, vote out every single incumbent until they understand our government represents all of America and not 1%.
Again....like that
really worked out the last time around!
