Here's an essay about expanding Medicare to include the needy and eventually all citizens.
I've been leaving comments lately on many pundit's pieces citing my completely satisfying experience with Medicare for seven years now.
It's a single payer, public option, and it works beautifully. It's also not welcomed by the private insurance industry, except for a clear need for people to have a private supplement plan to cover some gaps in Medicare coverage.
But the total of my Medicare and supplement monthly charges is still a bargain compared to paying the premium charged by private insurers to provide equivalent coverage.
I hope this catches on. I suspect the private lobby will prevail in blackmailing
Congress.
