Can Seniors Have Social Security Without Medicare?

Should retirees be able to cash in their Social Security pensions without participating in Medicare? Some members of Congress think so. Matt Kibbe reports:

"Introduced in the Senate by Sen. DeMint of South Carolina and in the House by Congressman Sam Johnson of Texas, the Retirement Freedom Act would allow individuals to choose to opt out of Medicare. (The bill numbers are S. 1317 in the Senate and H.R. 2435 in the House.)"

Kibbe hosts a discussion and poll:
