Thats not what theyâre doing.
What are they doing then?
Looks to me like they are working to keep premiums low for Medicare recipients.
no, they are robbing the trust fund to mask the premium increases they caused until after the election.

What caused the premiums to increase?
Fox has an opinionater on to do their thing.
They say something, completely unchecked for accuracy and truth.
Fox then writes an article touting what this opinionater said.
People on message boards take the Fox News article about what the opionater said as truth.
People vote based on this â â â â â â â â â
This is why we are doomed.

Lowering drug costs made premiums go up from the private insurers.
So to counteract that the premiums become subsidized to keep costs low.
And I am supposed to mad at who again?
premiums are not getting subsidized, they are flat out raiding he medicare trust fund to mask the premium increases. This is not done according to the law. They cannot just raid the fund to pay insurers the difference in premium costs. That is NOT what the money was appropriated for and there is no provision to continue it after the election. Should the trust fund declare the stolen funds campaign contributions?

exposing the falacy of lower drug costs. They didnât lower the cost, they shifted the cost. what was paid directly by the consumer to the pharmacy will now be paid by the insurer to the pharmacy and the insurer will pass on the cost (plus additional costs) to the consumer to pay on the other end.
all smoke and mirrors.

So what you are saying is that Medicare premiums and drug costs are being lowered to recipients and I should be mad about why?
does the word temporary not get through to you? This is NOT authorized by law. Cost shifting s not cost cutting. The consumer will pay the increased premiums, as soon as the election is over. This is a corrupt use of funds.

Unless the people who are interested in bringing Medicare and prescription prices under control win the election.
This seems to make people who want Medicare prices to be unaffordable upset.
Why is that?
complete â â â â â â â â â They have no plan to do so. Their only concern was not having the premiums increase before the election.
They did not lower drug prices, they merely shifted the cost so they can claim they did. Now theyâll rail on about insurance companies gouging their customers, which of course is nothing more than the result of the cost shifting.
Cost is cost and the drugs arenât going to pay for themselves. The only thing these morons are going to do is bankrupt the medicare trust fund. Which of course may be their goal to begin with.

So you are mad about lowering costs for Medicare recipients.
Strange thing to be mad about in my opinion.
