"I wonder whether you happened to catch 60 Minutes tonight, discussing Medicare fraud?"

Yeah, I caught it. It's a terrible problem. Medicare needs to fix it, pronto. Just from that little segment, I think they could easily correct the problem by putting a hold on any single address that requests more than, say, $10,000 in compensation within a certain time period, and checking with the supposed beneficiaries.

But, it's no reason to end Medicare or stop Medicare for All.

I'm sure fraud in our military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan DWARF that problem, and are orders of magnitude harder to police. We should END those operations!
