Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

The government expenditure on Medicare and Medicaid are determined by the quantity of healthcare demanded, not by a fixed government budget. The scale of expenditure on Medicare and Medicaid in the United States is much than that in other rich nations. The U.S. population is aging. Older people demand more healthcare services than do younger people. Consequently, without changes in the Medicare and Medicaid programs, the expenditure on these programs, already huge, will increasingly grow.
