Medicare drug plan can be misleading

The deadline to choose a Medicare drug plan is quickly approaching and some may be getting more than they expected.

In my opinion this drug thing is just a new way to steal money from people that haven't very much to live on to begin with. This "drug" option? is not an option it's "mandatory", no matter what, you end up with less money, whether you like it or not, this money will be deducted from your social security along with the money that is deducted for medicare, that most people have already had deducted from their pay check, each and every time you were payed. What does one do when thugs run the country?

Elect a new group of representatives and watch what they do. Watch them very closely. Then if they try to sell you out, raise hell.

That's how We the People prevented President George W. Bush from "privatizing" Social Security. We the People buried Congress under an avalanche of phone calls, e-mails, regular letters, telegrams, you name it.

Some great thinker once said, "When they feel the heat, they'll see the light." So True!

(Too bad we weren't more successful in stopping the privatized mess he made of the Medi-Care Prescription Drug Program.)
