Medicare

Alan Greenspan

Wed, February 16, 2005

I'm...of the belief that we probably ought not to address the medical issue quite yet until we get very far - much further down the road in the advance in information technology in the medical area...So I think that people who are saying we ought to do Medicare first before Social Security because it's a much bigger problem - I agree, it is a hugely much more difficult problem but I'm not sure I would agree with the issue of the sequence wholly because of the nature of what's now occurring in medicine.
