Now that President Obama has officially launched his re-election campaign, it is "game on" to secure the support of a crucial voting block, American senior citizens. What better way to gain their trust than to implement his game-winning strategy of fear-mongering and politicizing the beloved Medicare program? The president is hoping that seniors will be influenced by the mainstream media and taxpayer funded infomercials extolling the benefits bestowed upon them as a result of the Affordable Care Act, however, the Medicare program is skirting on the edge of bankruptcy and will take America down with it. The good news is D4PC is on top of this contentious issue and in this article, Drs. Hal Scherz and Richard Armstrong clearly explain what is at stake for seniors and what they can do to preserve the program that so many seniors rely on.

His tongue-in-cheek commentary reveals how supporters of PPACA hope Americans will begin to react to health care decisions in the wake of ObamaCare. That is to say, supporters of ObamaCare hope the American people will surrender their freedoms and power to make the health care decisions that are in their own best interest and completely defer those decisions to technocrats.
