I would like to know how any full service hospital could survive if they didn't accept Medicare. And, Medicare pays out a lot more than people pay into it. That is why Medicare is broke and the Government has a 22 trillion dollar debt. So, should we force people to pay more money into Medicare, or borrow more money and go deeper into debt?
