>> Not without significantly raising Medicare taxes....don't come back with the tired BS of fraud and waste etc...even if eliminated completely it would not make up the difference in the resulting increase of cost to seniors and it would be replaced by industry profits..

This is totally incorrect.

Insurance company profits are a pittance compared with the waste, fraud and abuse in Medicare, and certainly when you throw in the higher admin cost of Medicare vs. private insurance. There really is no comparison.

Private insurance waste, fraud & ause is minimal. The problem is almost totally in government programs.
