The New Medicare Bill

This bill is abominable. Why should you all be responsible for paying for my pharmaceuticals in 5 years when I reach 65? What the hell have I done to merit that (other than reach that age)? If you say that people "need" it - they also need cars and cell phones. Should you be made to pay for those also? The bill reeks... not because it does too little... but because it does anything at all! It is a bill that will cost the economy millions of dollars and, as a result of the law of unintended consequences, will also result in the production of far fewer new pharmaceuticals to help mankind.
