MM, here's another point about this matter.  Not only did I pay into medicare while I worked, I pay for medicare each month as it is deducted from my social security "trust fund" (which I also paid into).    Additionally, to have adequate coverage, I pay BCBS for supplemental coverage each month. Even with this, I still pay deductibles and co-pays.  To put medicare and social security in the same basket with medicaid is not "apples to apples."

I don't know the details of medicaid, but I suspect the recipients don't have much "sweat equity" in their benefit.
