No problem. Medicare is already (government) single payer, that has been broke for almost a decade and that is only paying part of the actual cost. (Part A).

For what the government allocates for Part A and what we kick in for part B, I can get parts A, B, C & D for no additional money. Single payer should absorb Medicare. No more Medicare. Advantage is a poor man's substitute for supplementals. Look at your deductibles. It stops working when you have some major health events. Then you'll have much more than Bill Clinton to whine about. The people who are ****ed at me retiring at 49 should be mad at Clinton. It was his loosening of the pension rules that allowed it. They made a little administrative change in how the PBGC calculates risk that allowed companies to send people like me off the payroll and into the pension plan without coming up with any more funding. That is just one way they generated their phony prosperity (read:increased profits) Who's ****ed at you retiring at 49? Maybe ****ed at you whining about it. I retired at 57 and nobody has peeped about it. I have a friend who worked for Sikorsky who became eligible for what I guess was a generous early retirement package five years ago, but his employer "made him an offer he couldn't refuse" to stay on his job, so he stayed and just actually retired this past spring. Now, he's "consulting" with a couple of the customers of his old employer. I guess if you are in a technical field and have skills that are hard to replace, you never really retire unless you really want to retire. "I was retired for a week," he told me in June, "but having nothing real to do except make-work and hobbies and golf and fishing seemed too boring." Yup. More proof your boat is another BS story. If you actually owned one, that would be a reason to retire. Owning a boat means you're retired? Really? Do you own a boat? Are you retired? Read for content. |

No kidding. He's losing it bigly. |
