I'm curious whether Congress, in its wisdom, will enhance federalism by allowing states to (somehow) opt out of mandatory health care. It sounds like a progressive paradox, a little sugar to help swallow a bitter pill. But might Congress unintentionally provide ammo to the 10th amendment believers who wish to construct a wall of separation between the federal and state governments? "I am in favor of the clear, bold step represented by HCR 50, introduced by Representative Creighton, and co-authored by Representative Guillen. It’s clear that this is not a partisan issue: it concerns all Americans, and all Texans.

"The Tenth Amendment was enacted by folks who remembered what it was like to be under the thumb of a distant, all-powerful government. Unfortunately, the protections it guarantees have melted away over time."

A Medicare Advantage plan or policy is not a medicare supplemental policy. If you are with a Medicare Advantage plan, then you should know the difference. Let me know if you want assistance with this. By the way, some medicare advantage plans are offered for a zero (0) monthly cost to the plan holder.

They need an entire healthcare overhaul to cut out fraud?
Why is that not currently being done?
Fraud and waste is a smoke screen. There is no need for a thousands of pages of a bill to fight fraud and waste - This should already be an ongoing process.
