Physician says Affordable Care Act an 'experiment' that will fail

21. Medicare needs significant expansion to take care of Medicaid patients.

Their care is dependent on the legislators of their states and denies them equal care. The cost of care for people covered by Medicare and Medicaid always falls almost entirely on the latter.

Their survival is in the hands of legislators that fund them well or put draconian conditions on them according to the whim of the voters in their states. It puts them at jeopardy, instead of being a firm promise such as Medicare is.

If we believe in equality as a nation, it would not be so. I think this is the real problem, exacerbated by media inciting division. We are all human and are entitled to be treated the same, some of us say.

Others carve out their piece of the pie and demand more as a reward for having more money, and brush off those with less. I'm not sure what it's going to take to get Americans to unify to equality in healthcare.
