Well, regardless of what the Medicare premium is, you will still need to get a Supplemental Insurance policy and another policy for drug prescriptions. My Medicare, supplement and drug policies currently cost me a total of about $325 (one person premium). I thought about going with the Advantage Insurance that might be cheaper but all the information I could find indicated that some of those insurance companies stop offering coverage, some go out of business and then the premium holder would be left high and dry without insurance coverage until the next enrollment period (NOv/Dec).
And, almost everyone I have talked to about insurance have had pretty sizeable increases recently (after obamacare passed) in their insurance polocies. And, why would anyone check Wikipedia and Snoopes for information about Obamacare...as Nancy said, "we'll have to pass this bill before we know what's in it". And, almost every day something newly discovered hidden with the bill is disclosed. I suspect that Obama can find something in obamacare regulations to cover just about any one of his Socialist policies he wants to implement. that's scary knowing that some beaurocrat or Government office has almost total and limitless control over our health. I don't trust beaurocrats with my emply folgers coffee can much less with something so important as health insurance.
I think it is Way beyond imperative that Obamacare be castrated in what ever way it can be done. I foresee a time when many folk particularly seniors will not be able to find a doctor, a specialist, and get many medicines and procedues cause it would not be economical for the health care system. Why would a person want to become a doctor if they no longer have control of procedures they can offer their patients or fees they charge? Why would a pharmaceutial company want to do any Research for new medicines if the government is going to control the ability to make a profit?
It's both depressing and demoralizing to think that we have allowed a group of radicals gain control of our country. That's what happens when there is a large group of morons voting that don't have a clue what is going on and know very little about the people they are voting for. I believe that Obama and all his far left radical Harvard professor appointees are about as close to being traitors to their country as you can get without setting fire to the Capital Building and screaming "Down with Capitalism".
