I CHOSE JOBS based on my health insurance plan in Florida, and when Obamacare was passed, my insurance coverage was gutted and cost MORE! (For one thing, I had to pay for coverage of condoms and other forms of birth control, although I'm nearly 80. If you can't afford a condom, you can't afford to have sex!!!) It was already expensive, but in insurance like most other things, you get what you pay for. (When people complain their insurance doesn't pay for much, it's because they bought a cheap policy.)

Worse, I am FORCED to pay for and use MEDICARE as my primary insurance. So I pay for TWO policies now and get less coverage than before. Even Worse, if Medicare refuses to pay for something that my FL insurance would pay for, my FL insurance is NOT allowed to cover it!

Obamacare is a disgusting scam. It isn't affordable, and not all people can get it. Plus, it ruined all other insurance policies that were working just fine. It is designed as another Give-Away program that doesn't work.

ALL INSURANCE IS A "SHARING OF RISK." It isn't mathematically possible for everybody to pay little and get a lot! Ten people can't each throw $5 into a pot and each take out $20.

Social Security was passed with the proviso that all the money paid in would be kept separate. The Democrats put it in the general budget and started spending it on the Viet Nam War and "poverty programs" while LBJ was in office. Now they want to give Social Security to illegals who never paid into it. Far from its promised intent.

Why would they treat Medicare any different?

Kathy: One more thought: LEGAL aliens have been receiving SS$$ since at least the 1980s AND ILLEGALS, to the best of my knowledge, since AT LEAST 2009, after Obama took office. Might have been happening before that; but, that is when I became aware of it. I practiced law in Oregon 1986-2020 which gave me a chance to interact with MANY, MANY different kinds of people who taught me MANY, MANY things that the "average" American might not be aware of.

Kathy: Thank you for reading my article. Yes, politicians are liars and scammers, especially Democrats. I LOATHE, LOATHE, LOATHE LBJ, mostly because he slaughtered so many American boys in Vietnam. Did you read my article about JFK Assassination, published Thanksgiving weekend? It is mostly about LBJ. And Biden is about to "kick out" elders & disabled from their homes: check out today's article. Diane

Diane,

To the point and direct. Good coverage!

The corrupt leadership that ruins all good things and dishes to the illegals, baby factory mama’s who make it their way of income or who are pimped out for a fat cat. Big legit families are deserving, making babies a business is not. This is harsh but we see this running rampant in our gang run town in CA. There are many very ill homeless who just fell through the cracks due to spouses passing, losing jobs, etc. and are not druggies, I admit, there are many who are severely hooked on drugs, and that is so sad, but fleecing our medicare savings and creating Medical that has been a good thing, sorely abused for gain, not survival. Even today, CA is only helping those who file taxes with extra COLA and child credits, but what about Boomers who get nothing because they make so little they don’t make enough to pay taxes? They could use a little help with gas, groceries, medication.

Hang on Boomers! They are after our frugal managed savings, and next they most likely will try and tax unrealized gains on your investments.

Most of our right are gone.

Abuse of power across the nation and all states is destroying a once adored nation with earned respect, the people’s rights, and, “A chicken in every pot”.

Joni: I am convinced that Biden's policies are INTENTIONALLY designed to get rid of as many WHITE Americans over 70 as possible. This is part of the "replacement theory" that Teddy Kennedy and LBJ started with their immigration reform in 1965. You will see more & more homeless elderly on your streets before the end of America's nightmare. Diane
