I'll back that one with this one FR:
A good friend recently sent me this -

US Postal Service created 1775, they had 234 yrs to get it right, it's broke.

Social Security created 1935, 74 years to get it right, it's broke

Fannie Mae created 1938, 71 years to get it right, it's broke

War on poverty 1964, 45 years to get it right, 1 Trillion/yr to poor and hasn't worked.

Medicare created 1965, 44 years to get it right, it's broke.

Freddie Mac 1970, 39 years to get it right, it's broke

" and after all these failure rates we're to trust our HC to the Politicians and Bureaucrats? " "Are they crazy?"

Imho, the very few government programs that have worked are the IRA, 401-K and 403 B and the ONLY reason for that is ,except for offering the tax breaks,
the Govt. turned it over to our capitalistic companies.
