22. I pay $95/month for Medicare (A & B). I'm a fairly high end user and like it.
Yet I continue to hear the "socialized medicine" strawman trotted out in discussions about universal healthcare, or Medicare for all, in America. Makes you want to go "Agggh".

Medicare works, for the most part. (Aside) Reimbursement rates need to be updated to current cost of business/cost of living. They're out of date. But, overall, a broad based source of healthcare for millions of retired/disabled Americans.
