Government has billions of deficit in Medicaid, and billions in Medicare....Why doesn't government fix those programs first?

Medicare was to have been OK with funding for years ahead, BUT Government wanted more votes, so added all sorts of people to the program who had never paid into it, and who weren't on the intended target list in the first place.

The people who are on Medicare and that are already retired, are REALLY going to have problems, as mostly their income is fixed, and there are NO additional companies that will supply insurance at the same price as Medicare is currently.

The Government gave their promise, and then pulls the rug out...??? What will happen to those Millions of people?
