thank you

ANSWER: That was simply a bill to remove Social Security numbers as the identifying number for Medicare. The purpose of that was to prevent identity theft. When people used their SS# for healthcare, someone could take that number and apply for credit under a false identity. I do not see it as having any real change on the economy.
