    The status quo doesn’t work. Period. We need to create a Medicare for all universal health care system that guarantees health care to all people.https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/yes-medicare-for-all-is-expensive-thats-not-the-point/2018/08/01/0b4a0708-95a8-11e8-80e1-00e80e1fdf43_story.html …

        So $32.6 Trillion to save $2 Trillion adds up? The problem with universal healthcare is it doesnt address the drivers of cost increases. And in all situations leads to rationing of care... Universal care is not universal in any system in any country that has it.

        I think you remember wrong and we are creating trillions in debt from what we have now. There is nothing democratic about socialism.

        I can't prove it and neither can you or Bernie. No one individual knows our cost of Medicare because of different ways to finance it. One thing we do know is administrative cost for gov is much higher than private

        Also being ignored are the impacts against the strength of the dollar due to bankruptcies and financial collapses of families not able to afford the costs of their health care. Our current health costs are making the dollar weaker which drives everyone down.

        so much doesn't work. My fear in 2016 and now, is that too many are ignorant of what constitutes a good life, prosperity and the means to assure those things. @SenSanders represents all of that, if we can fight to get him elected.

        I have health insurance and I need 6 MRI’s (every year) that will cost me at least $4,000 out of pocket. I have NF1, which I was born with and causes tumors to form all over my body, but I several that are located along my spinal cord. What am I supposed to do? Keep fighting!

        Nothing is either expensive or inexpensive. It is a matter of priorities. We way overspend on military. Maybe we should divert some of those funds to medicare for all. When looking at cost, you also have to compare it to the the monthly premiums those with insurance already pay.

        never accept the "we can't afford it" excuse. Just have one less war every now and then and tax the rich till they bleed.
