So the "Bern" admitted publicly that "free" health care for everyone is not really free. (Question below).

He plans to jack everyone's taxes...everyone...to pay for it. You won't be able to get healthcare at little or no cost through your employer anymore. You will be forced to take the so-called "free" "Medicare for All". No choice for you. And it will cost about double (or triple out of your net paycheck) compared to what Medicare costs now, because so many more people will have to be covered.

So my question is for all the people struggling to pay off enormous college loans. You lose the little to no cost employee heatlh care at work, you are still paying off your college loans, but your net paycheck is going to go DOWN, because your taxes are going to go way up.

So...if the "Bern" does what he wants to do and forces us into Medicare for all, how are you going to be able to pay your college loans and the new healthcare cost and still afford to eat?

And for seniors and others receiving specialized health treatments such as cancer treatments now on their private health insurance, are you aware that Medicare does not cover specialized health treatments such as advanced immunotherapy or gene therapy? How many seniors will be forced to go on welfare and Medicaid because they can't pay for their rent and pay more for Medicare?

Just asking.

It doesn't work! It is however the process to turn us into a socialist country which is the plan. Most can't figure that out because they only here FREE!

@curiosi So you would rather believe some blatant propaganda rather than someone who lives here and actually uses the services... Fair enough, lol

I've recently been diagnosed with a Pulmonary Embolism with possible clotting elsewhere in my body

I attended accident and emergency, received emergency treatment within a couple of hours, then the very next day had a CT-Scan on my chest to verify the diagnosis, followed by two more CT-scans within a fortnight to locate the possible clot, have an appointment tomorrow for a consultation with a Haematologist, and have an echo-cardiogram booked for early next week [b]just in case[/b] my heart has suffered some damage...

And all for no extra charge.


Yeah, it's a really shitty system 🙄
Here's a good read for those who want to see what Socialism means, and for those perhaps, not smart enough to appreciate following this mindset. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18820570-barack-obama-s-rules-for-revolution

@curiosi Yes well, it appears at least the old goat realizes he isn't going to sell this by claiming it's free but he has clearly already got one sucker on board who actually thinks it will be cheaper. You just have to wonder how these stupid idiots manage to get from one day to the next.
