Good Job Bernie And Elizabeth You Got Them Running Scared Running Anti M4A Ads And Lies

[DanieRains]

I just saw an ad on MSMBC that says Medicare for all could double income taxes, and close 1,000 hospitals.

Pure BS. They are truly running scared.

Oh the stock price, the stock price!!!!!

The didn't mention all the people dying today because they can't afford treatment, or medication, but hey, why would they.

It's all about the $$$$$.

1. How much IS it going to cost? We still haven't been told that all important part of the plan...

And please, even Elizabeth Warren has since divorced herself from Sanders' plan, people should stop saying "Bernie and Elizabeth" when referring to medicare for all.

3. Do you actually believe it will cost more than the current system?

That's the only plausible explanation for your question because if it is a cheaper system, even if only by a few million, wouldn't it be better to adopt the cheaper system? Some people simply hate change or else they are in the tank for insurance companies and hospital groups.

I am stunned so many DUers are opposed to health care for all Americans. It's sad.

6. He doesn't. He's just spewing talking points.

8. You never know. It can be tough to differentiate between trolls and those who are argumentative.

[George II]

7. I can't see how it could be cheaper without serious "unintended consequences" or collateral damage..

...like fewer doctors, medical facilities closing down, less medical and pharmaceutical research, and either massive unemployment or thousands of people displaced.

But we really don't know because we don't know most of the details.

5. Sanders and Warren both envisage a 4 year transition to MFA...

...though they differ in how they handle the four year transition to get there.

2. I guess we know who is and is not on the side of insurance companies and hospital administrators.

[CentralMass]

4. Well not watching MSNBC is a good start.

9. Yes. Exactly. And our candidates can ether disrespect the concerns Americans have, lie about

cost, or tell the truth. Yes, your taxes will be raised and there will be wrinkles at first too. They paint way too rosy a picture of single payer over the quality of healthcare many union members
employed or retired get now.

Americans do care about money. So M4All candidates have to allay their fears. I don’t think that
has happened and will hurt us in the GE.

No matter how great something is if you can’t sell it, put it away until you can. ACA lost the midterms, arguably a high price, but to many, worth it.

Now the price is higher.

10. Taxes Raised Premiums Reduced Money Saved

Overall cheaper, better for all, and everyone is covered.

A no brainer.

[emmaverybo]

11. Sure. So lots of Dems agree. But selling this in the GE is tougher. Raising taxes substantially and

on folks who already have affordable good quality care in an election year is a terrible, losing proposition. No brainer or not.
