4. There is not one card, whatever a given card says can be changed
tomorrow and again each day after that - from Drugs that get a discount, to the discount given for said drug.

Canada is always cheaper.

Internet legitimate pharmacies are almost always cheaper.

You pay for nothing - there is no benefit.

The program Only exists because of the 2.4 million in Medicare HMO's who were automatically signed up - the 0.5 million voluntary out of the goal of 5.0 million non-HMO sign-ups indicate folks can see they get no value for there money - that is a 10% response after Bush spent 100 million to have HHS run ads telling everyone what a great deal was coming.

The only benefit is the $600 of free drugs for those under $16,000 in income - and that is offset by the Medicaid changes being put through by the States that is forced by the GOP changes to Federal funding.
