For those who defend the doctors and lawyers in this country, look at the highest cost incurred by retired people, or for that matter, the American people. Medicare B, 16 percent year over year increase, prescription drugs, 10.4 percent increase, hospital services, 4.6 percent, auto insurance, 5.4 percent, home ins., 4.6 percent. Now, these are one year increases, and the American worker and retiree are marching in step year after year. Thank your politician and the lobbyist who owns them. The best way to become a monopoly is to buy government. This has been proven year after year in the U.S.
