How can they think that seniors don't know they paid dearly to support this self sustaining program? I am sorry that the Tea Party was able to oust so many of the working class supporters.

Finally, someone is explaining that Medicare is supported by payroll taxes and premiums deducted from Social Security checks. To hear some politicians talk, usually Republicans [Boehner in particular], you would think that both Medicare and Social Security are charities on a level with Medicaid. Social Security, alone, has $2.5 Trillion in Treasury Bonds that will take care of all retirees, yes, including Boomers, through about 2040 without touching the principal. The problem for the Government is paying back the money - and, blast them, they want to cheat the old folks out of their own money. Thank you for the article - made me feel good. Thank goodness.
