I Blame Direct Deposit!

I am constantly amazed by all those Protesting Folks, who are over 65, who want Government to keep its hands off their Medicare. For some reason now that they no longer get a U.S. Treasury check every month they no longer notice their deductions from Social Security for their Medicare premiums and that Medicare is a U.S. Government Single-Payer Program. You know, just like that Socialist Country North of our Border which incidentally calls its Single-Payer healthcare deliver system “Medicare.”

Maybe we should start issuing U.S. Treasury checks again as a little reminder of where that money actually comes from.

Sadly H.L. Mencken was right, “No one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public." Just ask Big PHARMA, AHIA, and AHIP. And I would be remiss if I didn’t add the Republican and the Blue Dog Democratic Coffers as well.

Medicare for All!
