Soon it will be open season for deer hunting. It’s already open season for us seniors.

We are getting shot full of ads for Medicare Advantage plans. They aim to tell us that these plans are superior to Original Medicare. Many of us know that this is a tall tail. Be wary of the hunters–they will not be wearing blaze orange. Their guns are loaded, and some are automatic. They are trying to lure you and would like to tag you with one of their insurance plans. If one of them contacts you, hoof it out of there and hide. Don’t be part of the harvest.

Baiting of deer is illegal; baiting us seniors is not.
