The people who would be put down have been paying into medicare for their entire working lives. When it comes time to cash a bit of that out, it's "Sorry homie, we mismanaged your money and are facing bankruptcy, we're going to have to put you down."If the government is paying the bill, why isn't it their decision to make? You can't have someone else pay your bills and still expect to retain full authority over every decision about your life. Don't like it? Don't have socialized medicine.
Germany has socialized medicine, and their entire system costs half of what ours does, from my experience is better quality in a lot of aspects, and they don't put down anybody.
