Medicare Warning: Premiums Set to Double
The report projects that per‑person Medicare Part B premiums will rise from about $2,200 per year in the mid‑2020s to roughly $4,500 by 2035, driven largely by rapidly increasing program spending and continued overpayments to Medicare Advantage insurers.

"Plan Steve" foresees a day when the average Social Security payment is entirely consumed by Medicare premiums. Funding Medicare more from "general revenue" is a no-go, because ideology dictates that general revenue money be given to the "JCs" instead. Solution? Give the old phartz another lecture on "personal responsibility", or told to "respect traditional family values", and sponge off of their spawn.
