And when Bernie says ‘why are we the only 1st World country that doesn’t provide free healthcare for all’, point out that he never says GOOD healthcare. Or that people would have to wait 3-6 months for a procedure, if they can get it at all.

I’m wondering if the Medicare for all plan is 80% like Medicare is now, or will everyone need Medi gap insurance?
Guessing it would be 100% Medicare.

Medicare for all is no care for anyone

You can’t force people to go into medicine and be docs and nurses....unless you become a totalitarian nation

Plus explode the cost of health care.

To increase the price of anything, subsidize it.

You must be one of the half of wage earners who pays income tax. The other half don’t give a hoot.

Medicare for all will gut original Medicare which most of those receiving it now paid big bucks into for forty years or so - it would be a disaster....

The point of this post was to say that our candidates need to tell their constitutents that ‘free healthcare’ will cost them 20% more in Federal taxes. And yes, ALL will pay. There will be no more ‘freeriders’......EVERYONE WHO WORKS will pay for ‘free healthcare’ in their paychecks, and will carry everyone who doesn’t work, but will still get ‘free healthcare’.

...instead of pointing out that Government run healthcare would cost $32.3 TRILLION over the next 10 years, Republicans need to say ‘that would raise Federal taxes on every taxpayer 20%’.

I'm sure one figure is as accurate as the other.
