In the U.S., you can withdraw at 55. Health insurance waits until 65
In the U.S., you can withdraw from a 401(k) penalty-free starting at 55. But Medicare doesn't begin until 65. Who pays during that 10-year gap?

CMS is ending the Medicare Part D Premium Stabilization Demonstration on December 31. The program paid a monthly subsidy toward standalone drug plan premiums, $15 per member in 2025 and $10 in 2026, and capped how far those premiums could rise year over year. Without it, the increases land in 2027 plan pricing.
National Campaign for Justice has a letter to Congress asking them to preserve it.

Keep an eye out! I haven't been to the doctor since July. They don't open Sunday. They switched from HotDoc to AMSConnect last December. I don't think an Australian business emails from a French address.

How does Mr Trump feel about helping Americans?
President Donald Trump made these remarks during an Easter luncheon at the White House on April 1, 2026. The event was closed to the press, but a video stream of the speech was briefly broadcast live on the White House social media accounts before being taken down. During the remarks, Trump stated: "Don't send any money for daycare, because the United States can't take care of daycare. That has to be up to a state. We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country. We have 50 states. We […]https://quinnscommentary.net/2026/09/06/how-does-mr-trump-feel-about-helping-americans/

#BANKS AND #GOVERNMENT ARE #STEALING RIGHT NOW!
They are cheating you when your are paying or "bailing out" a private #bank for re-loaning too much money to others or #speculating and #gambling too much.
Banks and Gov do #bailouts with public money which is basically #subsidising bad people and projects for industrial #destructive things and #pollution to our whole #system.

The Australian Govt: 'We can’t afford to put dental into Medicare.'
Also the Australian Govt: 'Anyway, here is $7,000,000,000 for private health insurers so they can keep their profit margins high and their executive bonuses fat.'
The math isn't mathing, but the lobbying sure is, welcome to capitalism for the poor, socialism for the rich.#dentalinmedicare #bupa #medibank #fairgo #publicservices

in 1972-74 the hostility to whitlam’s proposed new “medibank” scheme — from liberal party, press, AMA and others — was, imo, unbelievable. at first, doctors engaged in a campaign of non-co-operation, by refusing to accept “provider numbers”
australia was a nation resistant to change. we (whatever “we” means, given how many people had voted for whitlam) did not want socialist health care, and we did not want medibank creating a system of “ID cards by stealth”. (there were ID cards during WWII, administered by the local PO, but that was behind us.)
(indirectly related, but also a measure of attitudes and mindset, we were so resistant to change that when banks got together and created a credit card system — bankcard — people cut them up and returned the pieces to banks in protest. “we are NOT america, and we CAN pay our bills. we do NOT like debt or obligation”.)
medibank legislation (the original medicare) was at first modelled on the (presumably) practical health care system in canada, then gutted repeatedly before it could be passed. (and later scrapped by Fraser)
for a while, i worked in a section processing applications for medibank cards, and there was a whole campaign of people lodging dodgy applications (to clog up and discredit the system) which did not have very demanding ID requirements. there was a whole other section of the public returning their new medibank cards in protest.
if i remember correctly, the rationale for the cheque-to-doctor-via-patient was to re-assure change-resistant members of the public that doctors could not simply defraud the system by lodging excessive claims, and to allay fears australia would soon go broke because of whitlam’s mad plans. under this arrangement the patients were effectively providing an audit service.
to be fair, the world was very different in 1974, and to those who benefitted from it, the system probably didn’t seem anywhere near as inconvenient as having no health care at all.
but, yes, the world is very different now, and i’m astonished medicare are still doing things this way. i thought cheques were already done and dusted. if this doctor patient arrangement wasn’t so automated maybe someone would have found a way to change it, and save wages.
i guess politicians today are more inclined to tolerate medicare than to cherish it. -

'Severe pushback': #HouseRepublicans fear constituent revolt over divisive new proposal
by Carl Gibson, 8/13/2025
"House Republicans are now pondering whether to pursue another major legislative push involving #Medicaid later this year, just months after narrowly passing President Donald #Trump's massive tax and spending policy. But some are hesitant out of fear for how their constituents would react.
"Politico reported Wednesday that the Republican Study Committee (RSC) – which is made up of 189 Republican members of Congress — has invited a controversial figure to its Thursday meeting that suggests the GOP may make even steeper cuts to Medicaid this year or in early 2026. According to the outlet, #ParagonHealth Institute president #BrianBlase, who is credited as the architect of Republicans' Medicaid cuts in the #OneBigBeautifulBillAct, to this week's meeting.
"Blase's address to the RSC comes as Republicans plot whether to embark on another legislative crusade before the end of the year, even though the tax and spending bill almost failed to pass despite Republican majorities in both chambers of Congress. While no official details have emerged, Politico reported that Blase's invitation likely means that future Medicaid cuts could be on the table.
"Changes to Medicare may also be included in the conversation, as Blase will be accompanied by #DemetriousKouzoukas, who leads Paragon's Medicare Reform Initiative. According to its website, Paragon is focused on changes to #Medicare and #Medicaid policy, and its leadership and board have numerous ties to #FarRight policy groups like the #HeritageFoundation (which created #Project2025) and the #FederalistSociety.
"Not all Republicans are on board with another divisive vote on additional Medicaid cuts. Rep. #MikeFlood (R-Neb.) reportedly warned that there would be
'#SeverePushback' against any attempt to impose new cuts to the popular program that provides health insurance to #LowIncome and #disabled Americans."Politico's Benjamin Guggenheim and Meredith Lee Hill also reported that there is little appetite for another bitter legislative battle given the work House Republicans are facing when they return to Washington after Labor Day. They wrote: 'A major fight over government funding looms, as well as the expiration of the #ACATaxCredits — which could lead to drastic hikes in some Americans’ #HealthInsurance premiums.' "
