So...we all know that Florida is a fabulous retirement destination. Who wouldn't want to spent their golden years escaping the snow and enjoying the sun?
What about the rest of us though who either are tied to a local area through our children or don't have the financial means to jump ship for Florida?
Democratic Sen. Bill Nelson has pushed it to make sure that the 3 biggest democratic supporting counties in Florida will be exempt from any cuts that come to the Medicare Advantage program...does that seem right? John McCain tried to fight for this as a national issue and wanted to protect every senior...that didn't fly. How is it that Florida's seniors will be protected, but you and I will not be? What does this say about more cuts coming to the medicare program in general?
I'm genuinely curious about opinions or other information that might put this in a light that makes more sense to me.
