    If you're asking how Dems will pay for Medicare for All, be sure you ask Republicans how they'll pay for tax cuts. Oh, they won't? Nevermind

        If youre asking how Dems will pay for Medicare for All, but not asking how the country will pay soaring health care costs, something's amiss

        Not just that - how are we paying for the healthcare right now? Considering it is more expensive than M4A would be...

        Ha! Like a mind-reader! Back to the point: Opponents of Medicare4all like to pretend our current healthcare cost is $0, then go from there.

        We should tell them Mexico will pay for Medicare for All. That seems to work these days.

        We can call it "trickle up" healthcare. The costs will be recuperated by businesses due to a healthier workforce, less sick leave, etc.

        Ever wonder why republicans never worry about how they'll pay for increased military spending? That's like a given for them.

        Also ask why the US spends more of its GDP on healthcare than countries with universal healthcare...

        2 wrongs make a gigantic right, everyone starts trusting government and politicians and then we all live happily ever after.

        Oh, most would be perfectly happy to cut taxes and spending. Asking an *actual* Republican to pay for a tax cut is easy.

        Getting them to do it is an entirely different matter though.

        I know how middle class will pay, through taxes, just like SSI. How will corporations chip in once they're off the hook providing insurance?

        Usually in countries with universal healthcare companies pay about half of the cost.

        They don't have the same loopholes we have. I am 100% for Single Payer and support this bill, but corporations have to pay their share too

        Does this bill not include payments from companies?

        This bill isn't specific on100% of funding, much like single payer bill in CA. We need to make sure corporations can't wiggle out of paying.
