11. How does Medicare Bill of 2003 figure in this?
There are four trust funds that make up social security and one of these is Medicare. The Medicare Bill passed in 2003 was a givaway to the the HMOs and pill companies and the cost of that bill keep rising from the lie of $400 billion for ten years that they knew was a lie. A bill that outlawed negotiating pill prices is obviously an industry lead raid at the public treasury.

Didn't the Medicare bill because of its generous feeding of the HMO and pill industry change everything in regards to projections?
