Well, that leads to my point. MANY AMERICANS in fact I would say THE MAJORITY are hopeing to retire before age 65. Is Romney pushing a plan that would FORCE AMERICANS TO WORK? If so, I dont think thats going to be popular. I still maintain the best solution for people under 65 is to open up Medicare to us all but cause those of us under 65 TO PAY THE FULL PREMIUM for the insurance. This would STRENGTHEN THE BASE by causing generally healthier pre 65's to contribute to the pool monies based upon the health of the ENTIRE pool. So in effect, we would be paying in more then our share but it still would be a GOOD DEAL for US as we would get into that large pool which brings down costs. Administratively, no big deal, already have the means to run the program. I consider it a WIN/WIN for everyone. jdn
