Don't see how that changes much, though.

What I can't understand is why everyone is not ranting about this. Must be all that "free stuff"we got.
I think the medicare premium taken out of Social Security should be eliminated. Premium should be zero for all even for those with high income. Personally, I don't have much confidence in doctors that go to medical school outside of the US. My understanding is that the rate of pay for medical doctors in our area is low and that explains why doctors do not want to work here. I had a long conversation with someone in the medical field who works in Virginia because they are paid twice as much there.
