Privatizing a government function is code for someone wanting to make money. Lots of it. The government is not in the business of generating a profit. Drives those who want to make money off of the same function salivate. I've seen bits and pieces of NASA privatized and guess what? It does not save money, it does not improve efficiency, it does not improve quality of product. Congress critters brag how they reduced the size of the federal government but they fail to disclose that it costs the taxpayer more money. Since they can't also increase budgets other programs gets cut. So the taxpayer gets less for it's money than before. But businesses and investors are happy.
Greed prevents any business, including the so-called non profits from handling medical care. All of it, not just medicare, should be outside the hands of profiteers.
