Ben Carson said this past week he’d replace Medicare.  Sunday he told Chris Wallace his plan would “eliminate the need for Medicare.”

Reports last week said that Carson would have the government put $2000 a year into everyone’s accounts. Wallace asked him if that means giving everyone the same amount of money. Carson said no, but Wallace said, “That’s what you were saying, sir.”

When Wallace pressed him on his past indication he would eliminate Medicare, Carson said he’s perfectly capable of changing his mind.

Wallace admitted, “I’m a little confused.” He wondered why a regular person who isn’t indigent wouldn’t just stick with Medicare as opposed to his health savings accounts.

Carson insisted that “the same dollars that would be going to you from Medicare” would be going into those savings accounts.

      Die quickly and leave the bill to the family to pay.

      Facebook 99 of your closest friends and relatives to kick over $2,000 each. Don’t forget to add in your original two grand, problem solved.

        amazing the stupid stuff the right falls for…until they get sick. Right now the right is complaining because SS is not getting a cost of living raise, they have selective outrage.

    He’ll replace Medicare with a prayer circle. To bad nothing fails like prayer.

    “I am perfectly capable of changing my mind” weekly it seems, depending how what the polls say.

    He’s perfectly capable of changing his mind. Just like you do with a baby’s diaper when it’s full of shit.

    Clown Carson would do what with Medicare’s $2 T+ Surplus? Pocket the difference?

    Most people don’t pay a monthly premium for Part A (sometimes called “premium-free Part A”). If you buy Part A, you’ll pay up to $407 each month.
    Part B premium: Most people pay $104.90 each month.
    Days 91 and beyond: Medicare’s $630 coinsurance per each “lifetime reserve day” after day 90 for each benefit period (up to 60 days over your lifetime) https://www.medicare.gov/your-medicare-costs/costs-at-a-glance/costs-at-glance.html

      If you have some free time and you wanna do something productive with it than you must read that. Everyone needs money but is there any safe and authentic way to do it online. There are some credible sources but they require huge effort but little output … I also struggled for almost 2 years to find something that I can do than this came into my knowledge … I am doing this online work for two years .. In start it was slow but with little time I settled in this..It is the nicest way to earn more and more money at home.$40h – $90h…how? part time or full time,I’ve been bringing in $82h… It sounds unbelievable but you wont forgive yourself if you don’t check it out.
