Biden needs to withdraw nomination. [View all]

Selecting Kouzoukas to head Medicare is like putting the CEO of Exxon in charge of the EPA.

I do love the direction Joe has been going, I love that he wants to bring back the New Deal and erase the damage reagan started.

I can only hope he made this nomination at the behest of an advisor - one that he should never listen to again. This nomination is exactly the kind of sleaze that republicans have been doing for years. I can't believe that Joe knows about his nominee's background.

Kouzoukas has shilled for Medicare Advantage to the detriment of Medicare and those fooled into sighing up. (Confession. I followed my pension plan's advice and enrolled in an Advantage plan. Been working for a few years to get out.) Medicare Advantage is a republican and Big Insurance idea. It puts insurance companies in charge of medical decisions and scams Medicare for their profits. republicans see it as a way to bankrupt the program and privatize all medical.

C'mon Joe. Fix this. You were right that Obama Care was a BFD for the people. Putting Kouzoukas in charge of Medicare would be a sweet fucking deal for corporate insurance.
