Hope you have a backup plan, medicare is unsustainable. They say it will run out of money in 2036, but my question is how will it last for another 20+ years if it;s already 100 trillion in arrears?

The trustees for Medicare projecting the fund will run out in 2016. Probably much sooner, realistic estimates are 2014? Obama stole $500+ million from Medicare to pay for Obamacare / Medicaid expansion discarding seniors. There is a great write up "Medicare and you 2012" by two Senators:
