The plan includes drastic cuts in payments to doctors and hospitals. That is the only way such a plan could be implemented without raising taxes through the roof.

If we had single-payer for all medical expenses at the current rates, the taxes required would be 40% of all salaries.

Its free.

But they don’t tell you have to forfeit your income to the government in exchange for all this free care.

If life was free, we would all be for it. But in reality it comes with trade-offs none of us like.

Democrats don’t care. The rest of us should care.
