[Other] Medicare already pays for half of your health expenses

Medicare was created because seniors couldn't buy health insurance; it cost them 3 times as much as young people were paying to get any kind of coverage. Roughly 46% of a person's lifetime medical costs are incurred after the age of 65. Somehow we are supporting that with a 2.9% income tax, that we split with our employer.

Once more for the people wondering where the UHC money will come from: We are already paying half our own lifetime medical costs with a 2.9% income tax.
