    I believe in this with my whole heart. We are the only developed country in the world that does not offer healthcare as a right. Instead, big insurance companies CEOs are reaping billions and billions in profits off of us as we struggle to pay for insurance. We need this.https://twitter.com/SenSanders/status/1116089806507917312 …

    I'm proud to introduce the Medicare for All Act of 2019. It's simple: No deductibles, no surprise bills for out-of-network services, and no copays. And if you change jobs, no changing insurance plans or worrying about losing the coverage that you and your family depend on. pic.twitter.com/6w4Cp8aokO

        Not to speak for all of the United Kingdom but the ability to walk into any hospital, anywhere and be treated is probably our greatest state-given right. Oh, and we don't have handguns.

        Which company and plan? What's your deductible, copays, and out-of-pocket maximum? PPO or HMO? I'd love a good recommendation.

        What's the drug coverage going to be like. I am on an anti-cancer drug that retails for $10,000 for 1 month of treatment.

        If it is like insulin, which cost 10x more in US than in Canada, the cost will be more like a thousand per month and will be much easier to cover by med4all.

        Medicare4All is able to negotiate prices like Medicare used to. AND it covers it.

        Yeah, but at least we get to pound our chest and crow about how capitalistic we are. You can't put a price on that, right? 😏

        Because America is ran by the 1%, the corporations, and the rich people. Private business in America has smothered and stifled wages, there us no COLA! But consumer cost continued to go up!

        Only 3 ways private insurance companies make profit.: 1. You pay monthly ,but never get sick or go to the doctor 2. You pay monthly ,but get DENIED coverage when you get sick . 3. You pay monthly, then you DIE.

        Healthcare should NEVER be for profit. A human being is worth more than money. Or we are all slaves.
