There may be some fraud in Medicare but that is not driving up the cost of health care. What drives up the cost is the Medicare does not pay enough to providers to cover their costs. Therefore they have to charge all others higher prices. Better that we have mandated insurance thru insurance companies than the government because: #1 - Capitalism is not bad-let the market work, putting everyone one in the risk pool will drive down the cost of insurance. #2 If the govt becomes the payor, SOCIALISM, MARXISM, and as projected wants to reimburse hospitals and doctors at Medicare rate, you WILL see fewer services available because there will not be the flow of money to maintain the service. If you want good diagnostic tools it will cost $$. Govt health care - good-by MRI, PET scan and other diagnostic tests. You will wait in line and die in line waiting for care or be much sicker. Ask the Canandians who cross the border to get immediate care. Hospitals will go out of business under government and that will drive up unemployment numbers. THINK ABOUT IT. WHAT HAS THE GOVERNMENT DONE WELL?
