Commentaries on Medicare

The Raid on Medicare by Kelly Hearn on the Alternet Drug Reporter web site claims "the real cost of the Medicare prescription drug bill is finally emerging: The drug industry gets more than $100 billion in profits, while seniors and taxpayers get the tab."  This page also has related articles.

The Center for American Progress has an archive of articles on Medicare issues that are an excellent resource for study of this subject.  The page listing these articles also has a very good collection of links to other related sites.

The Center on Budget and Policy Priorities "is one of the nation’s premier policy organizations working at the federal and state levels on fiscal policy and public programs that affect low- and moderate-income families and individuals."

ABC News has an interesting article comparing the Bush and Kerry plans for healthcare.
