Maybe I am misreading, but you seem to be "rooting" for the collapse of FDR and LBJ's safety net programs?
You must have a plan for when that happens. Would you mind sharing with others?
If you are young and relatively healthy, I think health insurance is still a major expense. What do you guess premiums will be when you are 65 and healthy? Or maybe 65 with a major health issue?
If your parents and grandparents are still alive, what will their options be?
During the time of LBJ's push for the "Great Society" and Medicare, there was no more outspoken advocate against it, than Ronald Reagan. Here is a link to his speech and how the concept would ruin America. LINK #mce_temp_url#
When he was elected president, he changed his mind and realized that the SS and Medicare programs were worth saving. He and Tip O'Neill worked across the aisle to strengthen both programs.
Unless you have a good plan, I might suggest you look at what made RR change his mind.
