Medicare Until Death : No Opting Out?

This is what Washington and the liberal justice system was designed to do - use insanity as a basis for decisions. The only way to get out of Medicare is by dying. Yikes!

Medicare ruling. The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled this week that seniors who want to give up their entitlement to Medicare are not allowed to leave the program. The suit was brought by former Rep. Dick Armey (R-TX) and several others who claimed they could get better insurance coverage elsewhere if they hadn’t qualified for Medicare. But the Court ruled that senior citizens “remain legally entitled to the benefits regardless of whether they accept them.” In other words, you can check out but you can never leave.
