Again Medicare will be forced on me when I'm of that "advanced" age. My personal insurance collapses at the designated "advanced" age and automatically they throw me into the bowels of Medicare.
So, Medicare is your rational to take every person in the U.S.; man, woman child and illegal, and establish a gazillion dollar entitlement for all that we cannot pay for and will devastate our economy?
Spare the nation from your good intentions.

Social security has been the law of the land for over 70 years, so you knew the rules when you started working. Nobody took your money without your permission. You had to sign a form.
Not to worry, President Gingrich promises to privatize social security as soon as he takes office. (That worked out so well for President George W Bush.) That will be right after he abolishes child labor laws.
Let me get this straight, Medicare is good for you but not for the general public?
