You pay Medicare taxes on your W-2 wages, not medicaid.

Yes. Medicaid is Universal Healthcare for poor people that you pay for - with your taxes, and if you’re self employed with a portion of your health insurance premium that funds someone else’s “supplement.”

You also allegedly pay for your Medicare premium in advance of turning 65- but really you’re just paying for people that are over 65, many of whom also buy a supplement.
