    Big Pharma makes billions in profits while 40 million Americans can’t afford co-pays or deductibles. Health care is a RIGHT, not a privilege for the wealthy. I'm proud to be an original cosponsor of #MedicareforAll & the many health reform proposals introduced by my colleagues.pic.twitter.com/t8mGEomjN8

        I do not support medicare for all. I believe in choice. I do support Govt going after Pharma to negotiate fair prices.

        How does that philosophically work exactly? How can I have a right to something someone else has to provide? What happens if there is no provider? How does that human right work then?

        Awww that’s cute that y’all think it’s a right...when it’s not. Y’all may want to read the Constitution again because I have multiple times and I don’t recall seeing healthcare as a right.

        And nowhere does it say not to provide it via the legislative process. Does it? Constitutional scholar that you think you are. IF it makes you happier as a 'conservative' it's cheaper, increases productivity, results in better outcomes. Healthcare for-profit isn't christ-like

        So if by chance it would go through does that mean all politicians will take that for their health care coverage instead of what you have now. you made the American people take Obamacare but not one politician took it for their own coverage why are you any better than us?
