    I have a simple question for the health care industry: Why do you believe it is more important to spend millions on advertising, lobbying and campaign contributions than it is to make sure that no one dies or goes bankrupt because they cannot afford health care?

        I have a question for you Senator. Do you have an individual health insurance plan through the marketplace, or the one provided to you by the private sector or lifetime plan from the US government?

        If you check his fox town hall, the interviewer asks Bernie if he would be on Medicare 4 All as well - “absolutely”. So that means you and him would have he same exact health care plan.

        But he can do that now. Senate Sanders can forgo his employer sponsored plan and select a plan through the marketplace.

        That’s really interesting right; if he opts to use the best healthcare plan possible (currently one for senators), but then will switch to Medicare for all when it’s available, doesn’t that prove M4A is so much better? We have this in Australia it works.

        Obviously they believe it’s more important to spend millions on advertising and lobbying or they wouldn’t do it. They’re criminals.

        I disagree with both of you, it is a business for them and they are suppose to do anything and everything “legally” possible to get there.

        Our error was allowing for profit health care, or not placing caps on profits, or using profits more prudently....The FDA approved GMOs, Roundup crops, we shld have healthcare on that basis alone. #MonsantoTrial
