The far-left-wing Marketwatch website is constantly carrying water for the far left wing Medicare Rights Center, the Democratic Party's "Seniors are Stupid" lobby. This recent post talked about a poorly done Medicare Rights Center poll that claimed seniors were having all kinds of problems understanding Medicare. Follow the poll's numbers and logic:
- 4,000,000 (est.) people signed up for Medicare in 2014.
- 3,996,700 had no problem
- 3300 called the Medicare Rights Center hotline
- Seniors are stupid!
When you add into that the fact that about 20% of people on Medicare get Part B for free (so they will not have to pay anything no matter how bad they screw up enrollment), this breathlessly headlined problem applies to .seven hundreds of a percent of the us stupid seniors1.
1The Medicare Rights Center agenda is to support the Democratic Party's 10-year-plus campaign to repeal Medicare Parts C and D
