Between 2012 and 2030, 74 million baby boomers will retire, cease to be the major contributors to Medicare and become the major drain on Medicare. How long will an overtaxed labor force in a de-Christianized America be wiling to pay the bill to keep all those aging boomers alive?
Rationed care is coming, and the death panels will not be far behind.

Oddly enough, I don't see private insurance companies offering to step up to the plate and help out with the burden. Now, why might that be? Where is their humanitarian spirit?
You do not know what you are talking about. Why do you believe this fear mongering?
I don't think you read the link. The words I supplied were quoted from the last two paragraphs of the link. I do, however, agree with Buchanan on this one. Do you know that, as he said, there will be all those baby boomers retiring and going on Medicare. How do we provide medical care for all the rest of the people in the country and for them on Medicare?
Maybe you need to answer that question right after you read the link.
lol, must be a slow night for ya uh roy? now your spreading fear, what else is new?
You, also, failed to read the link, Duke. I love it when you people throw out the posts that are totally negative and haven't read the links tied to the OP.
Don't worry, the economy has been such crap for most Baby Boomers that we don't suffer from any illusion that we will ever be able to retire anyway.
But you can take yourself to Medicare and that will make all this nationalized healthcare impossible without rationing. Now since you are so old (I am 76) I think that you can expect to see much more stringent rationing than now. Some of that rationing will be of the kind like wait another year for that treatment after you have been told you have only 6 months left.
Have you tried to get health insurance after 65? I couldn't and that was 11 years ago.
