As is often true, it is far easier to attack the messenger than the message itself. In this case, it is much simpler to obsess over the finances of an old lady than address her points, which become more and more prescient as America's unfunded entitlement obligations balloon.
This is an interesting example of the insidious nature of entitlements, though. One is almost always put at a social disadvantage by not taking them, thus ensuring their growth. If everyone is getting their healthcare paid for by the government and putting that money into investments, how long can the ideologically opposed hold out? The results are clear enough - massive unfunded entitlements that cannot be touched by elected officials as everyone is on the dole.
