        Australia has a universal healthcare system and spends less as a proportion of GDP and less per capita on health than the US does currently...

        Is Bernie Sanders out of his mind? 43.6 trillion over 10 years cost! Massive tax hikes!

        So the money employers and employees currently spend as a hidden cost would be spent on a government program that would cover 30 Million more people through taxes instead of privately. You completely miss the whole damn point that it saves money and covers more people.

        Wow, misleading tweet. You forget to mention that it would DECREASE the total amount we as a country spend on healthcare WHILE COVERING ALL PEOPLE. #worthit

        What the study apparently buries in charts is that Medicare for All actually would bring down substantially the overall cost of American health care. Andrew Sullivan points this out in a new piece. Google it.

        Has anyone calculated how much money Trump has added to our Nation’s debt and accomplished nothing but chaos? I’ll take Bernie’s healthcare.

        We already spend more than this as a country, so theoretically if consolidated into one program, this would report a net savings. Unfortunately it’s being reported as if it would be *additional* spending.

        Quack @SenSanders talks about being for the middle class Meanwhile, he’s pushing for Medicare For All which would cost taxpayers almost $33 TRILLION and Free College, which only God knows how much that will cost He’s a fraud! Shame on millennials dumb enough to vote for him

        Shame on people dumb enough to not understand that the $35 trillion we currently spend covering 30 Million less people would basically already cover this tax so it’s not even a cost increase. You’re better off not replying because you can’t grasp basic economics.

        It would also decrease spending in other areas. Misleading headline.

        You really seem to be going down the Fox News rabbit hole with some of your reporting, the wording of this is horrible and counter to the actual study
