"While Senator Rick Scott was CEO of Columbia/HCA Hospital, he oversaw the biggest Medicare fraud in US history and was fined $1.7 billion, which was the largest healthcare fraud fine ever levied by the DOJ," tweeted political commentator Brian Tyler Cohen in response to Scott's post. "Maybe don't listen to this guy when it comes to protecting earned benefits."

In reply to Dukes Yeah it’s been a while, but these guys have some nerves. And the thing that pisses me off is FICA taxes are a combination of Social Security and Medicare taxes that total 15.3% of your earnings. You are responsible for half of the total bill, your employer pays half (7.65%), which includes a 6.2% Social Security tax and 1.45% Medicare tax on your earnings, and these MF-ers.like Scott make it seem like its free handouts – like recipient didn’t pay into it….I wonder how he became a multimillionaire. Really, wonder? I may be off a bit on the figures

Those republican cretins use the term "entitlements" to describe Medicare and other social services that people contribute or pay into.

And you what? It works. There are millions of dumbass Muricans that believe these social programs are entitlements and that republicans are justified in cutting or eliminating them altogether.

The medicare rip off is old news. The sad part is despite this fact Florida voters, especially the ones who migrated from the North and other states still elected him twice as governor and then Senator.

In reply to Brerzerk

why?


because the fraud was probably much bigger than the fine!
