Know what will happen to Medicare

We have been hearing a lot about the constitutionality of Obamacare, but nobody has given us the whole picture. What are “they” afraid of? Maybe one of those items is the fact that Medicare premiums will increase a whopping 100 percent by 2014. This concerns all senior citizens who are on a fixed income and, with constantly rising costs, are struggling to keep their homes and families fed. Why is this fact hidden from us seniors who have worked all their lives to help build this, “our beautiful,” country? We have not heard anything about this on television news programs or read it in the newspapers. Publish this fact, so every senior will know who’s throwing them under the bus.
