Mitt Romney May Not Need Medicare, But Seniors Do

1. what about Romney's wife Ann?

I think she has MS.

Maybe she's never worked a day in her life so Medicare is not an issue for her now.

Someday it very well may be a huge issue for her.

These fools live in their glass houses.

How dare they throw stones?

2. MS medications run about $1,500.00 a month.

She probably spends more than that on Vet. bills for her horses.

4. Maybe she's on Tysabri

I'm sure Mitt pays the $15,000.00 a year+++++++++ for it!

Maybe they'll see reality then perhaps when the till runs dry if ever.

Long term care is not an issue for millionaires pulling in $60,000.00 a day in "dividends" that are most certainly tax fucking free!

3. There lies the problem - Mitt doesn't need it so he does not see a need for it

This is how things work in Mitts world.

All for me and none for thee.

5. When you're worth a quarter of a billion or more

you probably can afford to self-insure. But my guess would be he's far too money-minded for that. He no doubt continues health coverage through Bain Capital or some of his other businesses. With what he has here and hidden around the world, no matter how old or sick any of the Romneys get, they will never "need" Medicare.

Are we supposed to applaud him for saving the taxpayer the cost of his Medicare? Is he even eligible? With his ability to dodge taxes, maybe he's avoided FICA taxes as well.
