Doug Tweeted. Biden wants to hike taxes to protect Medicare. A tax hike would help shore up the key trust fund that pays for Medicare.

Once again, I agree. Raise the Medicare tax. It’s currently at 2.9% with half paid by the employee and the other half by the employer. Raise it to an even 4%, 2% paid by each. Medicare Part A is scheduled to run out of money in 2026 or go bankrupt as the saying goes. Something needs to be done. The question is of political will?


It's high past time that we start electing Americans to congress and the presidency who put America first instead of their political party. For way too long we have been electing Republicans and Democrats who happen to be Americans instead of Americans who happen to be Republicans and Democrats.
