Are you willing to burn your Medicare Card? The Tea Party outfit FreedomWorks wants the uninsured to burn a non-existent Obamacare card. But as a loyal Tea Partier are you willing to burn your Medicare Card to support Freedomworks and the Koch brothers and their fight against socialism? Didn't real patriots in 1776 do more than burn Medicare cards?? Isnt it time for the real Tea Party to step up?
I've paid into Medicare since 1965. No, I'm not burning my Medicare card.

The entire system will collapse in a few years of its weight anyway, once ALL the leeches kill it.
You may never use it (BozoCare) but one way or another .. You are going to help pay for it.
(I'm guessing that you aren't homeless, sitting in a cardboard box, posting from your found laptop, using free wifi outside of a StarBucks?)
Taxes my friend, Taxes!
(FICA ring a bell?)
You say you're wealthy (And not sitting outside that StarBucks)?
That is why the IRS is involved.
(They have 'creative' ways to look for and 'find'.. more money than they "think" you need and tax it).
Buy food?
Purchase fuel?
Use cable?
(Taxes)
Of course ...you could give all of your wealth away, live like a hermit.
Dumpster dive for food.
Never watch tv.
Walk everywhere you go and then, one day ...
They find your body .. sell the clothes off of your back on ebay and your body to science!
(Death Taxes!)
(Which of course ... will help pay for the BozoCare that you never voluntarily participated in!
(OR paid for)
I would NEVER sit in front of Starbucks. They are anti-gun and overcharge for their coffee.

I haven't read the responses.. but I already know what they'll be. Old folks think they've "Paid for their Medicare."
They're wrong, but they still think that nonetheless. The current costs of medical care far outstrip any FICA taxes they've paid. I don't think Medicare has ever been fully-funded by FICA.
I paid into it and I'll take it when it comes my turn.
Yeah , if the Republicans don't turn it into a voucher program first.
Because, as usual, the inevitable cost-cutting will only apply to today's working-age people. It's America's going out of business sale!
