We received this question from a reader: "Have you heard any rumbles about the new MedicareRX program or are we the only ones who have been less than pleased? Just wondering. Thanks. Pat"

PAT: Thanks for your question. I'm assuming you're referring to Medicare Plan D, is this correct? Or, do you mean the medicare plan D program offered by AARP?
We have a few pieces of related mail in there. Maybe something will show up in there. If I find anything interesting I'll try to get back to you. What have you heard?

As far as your dissatisfaction, it's Rusty's less than humble opinion that plan D is a big political joke for the horse's hineys in Washington, D.C. to pat each other on the back and brag, "See what WE did?" When actually, they've really screwed up lots of old folks since some the pharmaceutical companies have taken the stand, "Since medicare plan D is taking care of you, you don't need our free medication any more." It's costing seniors untold millions in money they don't have.

The AARP backers of that legistation are a bunch of eliteist moneybags whom will never be affecgted by this fiasco.

Anyone else have anything to add?
