I disagree. People make use of the healthcare system differently. On average the population's costs may go down, but individual costs will vary. i.e If I never go to the doctor, I will only see a tax increase. @ewarren is obfiscating that consequence of her plan. 1/2

This isn’t necessarily true, unless you don’t have insurance at all. If you have insurance, you pay premiums for insurance, either directly or because your employer pays them rather than paying you in salary. So if you, or someone on your behalf pays premiums, your “costs”

Will be less. Now if you don’t have insurance at all, then you are correct: your overall costs will go up in exchange for knowing that if catastrophe strikes, you won’t go bankrupt or die from lack of care. And you are correct that this is related to population

I totally agree. And I think @ewarren would too, but what began as a simple question, "Will Medicare for All raise taxes" has morphed into a sticking point for me & many voters, because of Warren's repeatedly evasive response. It begs the question, "Why is she not answering?"

And to return to the original tweet... I don't think it's "obsessive" to ask that question.
