Most people on Medicare are generally quite happy with it. The idiocies generally start when the government let private companies get involved (Medicare Part D).

In addition, the person who brought "socialized medicine" to Canada is regarded as as a hero.

At the rate we are going, whoever finally brings Medicare to everyone in the US will be regarded as a hero as well. I have what qualifies as pretty good coverage by US standards and I still won't shed a single tear when it gets replaced with single payer. In fact I look forward to having more flexibility to switch jobs or start my own business without having that consideration.
