(Source Kaiser Family Foundation data from December polling on Democrats’ views of Medicare for all. Kaiser Family Foundation via WSJ: http://blogs.wsj.com/washwire/2015/12/20/bernie-sanders-hillary-clinton-and-medicare-for-all/)

the insurance companies making more money, raising rates/co pays/deductibles on so many people to the point they can't even afford to use the "health insurance" they must carry.

Have a monthly but doctors part b has a premium for those earning less than $87,000 annually and that premium is $104.50 monthly for an individual. This also has co-pays for doctors visits and some other procedures. It may be necessary to have a gap insurance.
