I agree...I wish I could ‘opt out’ of the mandatory payment for Medicare that is taken out every month from one’s SS.

I rarely had any regular ‘health insurance’ over the course of my adult working life. I made do without and I never went to the doctor. (And was not sick.) If I did I participate in the ‘sysytem’, it was at a low cost community healthcare center, that was an income based system and charged according to one’s income. Now that I have Medicare ‘health insurance’ I don’t even want to avail myself to use it, because I am seriously ‘down’ on the Industrial Medical Healthcare Delivery System.
