Never do I hear this from someone who is ON medicare. I want to hear from people on medicare about how it works. Not some self serving Doctor, Hospital, Drug Company, Politician or other vested interest group. I am on medicare and I can tell you, unequivocally that it is NOT broken, nor is it bankrupt. It is a working model for how health care SHOULD work in this country. Yes,, the result will be the disappearance of the health care insurance companies (who produce nothing) the reduction of income of Doctors Nurses and Hospitals, the reduction of obscene profits for drug companies and the general improvement of the health of the people of the United States.

This absolutely must NOT be allowed to happen! If it does, it can and will cripple and kill people.

This absolutely must NOT be allowed to happen!
