So let me ask you, has there been any sort of, for example, regression and analysis to see if there is a secular trend that is just continuing downward usage as we increase taxes versus this kind of significant commitment of Federal…

Well, I buy glucosamine chondroitin just to tell you more about myself than you care to know.

So is it possible to surely make me fully aware of this but I am not fully aware of it because it is somewhere on line 47 of paragraph 42?

But what about my credit card company?

Now, what if it is a prescription medication?

I have to say, with Obamacare, it is like deja vu all over again. Medicare is going bankrupt.

Under current law Medicare will be paying providers less than Medicaid.

I see that you are pivoting here.

We put them back into Medicare as opposed to spending them on another entitlement, and I think that is the difference between the two of us.

I actually see that what we are really doing is effectively denying access.

It may be access on paper but it is not access in power.

If Medicare is now paying less than Texas Medicaid, what will that do for access to services for those who have Medicare?

That is frightening. There just seems there should be some sort of proactiveness involved.

So that is a third category, if you will, combined?

Medicaid is bankrupting States, and this was before the Obamacare mandates that usurp States' rights.

So just for a specific example, if you can use your Medicare dollar to get a personal attendant for a patient who is pre-nursing home, if you will, then that can save money on the Medicaid side, which would be a much greater expense, by…

Medicare, per the actuaries who run the program, is going bankrupt in 10 years hastened by $500 billion extracted from it by Obamacare.

And again, that is why it just seems like managed care would be custom made, that this is where it would integrate and bring things together.

Now, Republican have proposed freeing States from the rigid Medicaid rules, which make it difficult to coordinate benefits between Medicaid and Medicare.

Medicare and Medicaid are important programs that are unfortunately unsustainable in their current form.

Unfortunately, under the current situation, Medicare provides incentives to treat patients in one way and it provides Medicare incentives to treat patients in another way.

We have also put forward a plan to save Medicare from bankruptcy, to preserve Medicare as it has been known for those who are on it, and to preserve it for those who will be on it.

As the risk of losing my Christmas presents, I will say, though, that it almost seems that if you have one with credit card numbers and Socials and medical, you know, military identification numbers, that clearly should be in its own silo.

Now, are we going to restrict the ability of someone to know what census track I live in?

Does this person have a motivation to not recall or is there, on the other side, such motivation?
