Medicare Product of Political Marsh Land
In Washington the row over Medicare heated up as President Kennedy and Secretary Freeman attacked opposing Senators. Kennedy aimed at 21 Democratic and 31 Republican foes who voted against socialized medicine while Freeman condemned the farm bill critics as nonsensical. The Medicare plan, critics say, is a political wedge with a $2 billion annual tax rise, limited hospital aid, and a guaranteed $10 daily hospital charge, designed to push broader socialized care despite prior federal aid.
