Perhaps there is a political lesson to be learned from programs such as Obamacare and the Medicare Catastrophic Medical Coverage Act of 1988: social programs should not be passed piece-meal. Those that already have the coverage will be against extending the program, and even the Tea Party slogan: keep government out of my medicare, then makes more sense. For government to extend medicare to others becomes a threat to my medicare coverage.
Today many people today are covered medically and so most of us see no national need to cover others. With government medical care we have become self reliant.
