31. Republicons held the house and senate in 1997...

Clinton and the republicon controlled Congress approved this market-based alternative to achieve three primary goals:

"Expand Options": To give beneficiaries more choices, allowing them to receive their benefits through private managed care plans (like HMOs) rather than relying solely on the traditional government fee-for-service model. Buyer beware comes roaring back.

"Reduce Costs": To ease the growing financial strain on the Medicare system by leveraging the cost-controls and preventive care strategies commonly used in private-sector insurance. Corporate profit maximization the only metric that matters. Privatize everything in the public sector, keep the republicon agenda going even when the official party is out of power.

"Offer Lower Premiums": To provide seniors with less expensive, bundled alternatives (we don't cover things junk policies) to traditional supplemental "Medigap" policies.

Clinton was a so-called "New Democrat"- a political "moderate" (republicon lite) that sought to combine progressive social values with widespread "deregulatory" / laissez-faire economics.

Just wait for all these "Dems" to come out in full force in 2028...

Looking at you Republicon lites: Mark Kelly, Pete Buttigieg, Gavin Newsome, Andy Beshear and so mamy more...
