I don’t see US voters complaining about Medicare, which is basically taxpayer funded healthcare for hospitals after you’re 65.

Medicaid is intentionally handicapped since it’s a poor person program and poor people don’t have good political representation.

“For hospitals” is just Part A. And, “over 65 or disabled”.
