    Over 70% of Americans who died with COVID, died on Medicare, and some people want #MedicareForAll ?

        I bet the death rate at hospitals is high - get rid of them too.

        Has anyone sourced that claim? I bet more of them died on Medicaid than Medicare.

        Everyone 65 or up is eligible for Medicare, even if they're also eligible for Medicaid.

        I have discovered that the vast majority of dead bodies are in cemeteries and yet somehow the cops refuse to investigate.

        Massie's point can't be a serious point of discussion either. 74% of the people who died from Covid were over the age of 65. Medicare is a program for people over the age of 65. It is the same rhetorical argument as saying umbrellas are present when it rains. Umbrellas cause rain

        99% of people's first beverage was milk yet they die. No more milk.
