    We have a lot of work to do to make sure every American can get access to the high-quality, affordable health care they deserve. It’s time to start putting the needs of people and families above insurance companies’ profits. It’s time for Medicare for All.

        You want corporate executives who only care about profits making decisions about what healthcare you're entitled to? Put it in the government's hands. If it's not run right, we can elect a new government. Corporations aren't accountable to us like the government is.

        Corporations are most definitely held accountable. If they don't provide good service, ppl go elsewhere & they loose business money & possibly go out of business. I can change insurance faster than govt. Actually I'm suggesting more than just insurance or govt as the only options

        You can change insurance fast? Most of us rely on employer-provided plans and can only ever change anything in November. I don't want my employer deciding what my choices are. I'd rather just know everything is covered 100%.

        With free market you could afford healthcare without your employer. And every November is still faster than every 2 or 4 years if lucky enough to change govt.

        What evidence do you have that prices would go down? The free market isn't making it affordable to heat your home, put gas in your car, get a degree, or eat. Insurance executives would still be greedy sociopaths if we made it so your employer didn't pick your insurance company.

        That's how the free market works. Competition from different options not just different ins companies fighting for ur dollar & making known what healthcare really costs allowing ppl to make educated choices where & how to spend their money will drive down cost & keep quality up

        Except that's not how it works in the real world. We have a free market for healthcare now, and people can't afford it. That's why we're stuck with whatever plan our employer is subsidizing. They don't shop around? Of course they do, and it's still too expensive.

        Funny how this question is never asked when we write another blank check for our already bloated military.

        I can assure you that I ask it. In fact, it's my favorite question whenever talking with or tweeting a politician.

        If you are for this you math is bad. Medicare itself does not serve elders well.
