15. but try it this way

I'm an attorney and I googled this thread because i had this idea yesterday, so I see I'm not the first. I would file it based on the idea that Medi-care should be required to pro-rate and provide a plan for those who are younger, as there is no legitimate reason why they should not be compelled to offer a program to younger people if it is cost neutral. In other words, turn it into "the public option" by having them come up with a monthly fee that younger people can pay. If there is no cost to the govt then there is no compelling reason to deny it, and then argue people have a fundamental right to health care..
