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.

At least he has a plan that he is putting out there to discuss and debate the merits of (or lack thereof). Still waiting to hear from the party of "no" what its alternative solution is...

It's lame for someone to propose a solution to a problem and allow others to see, examine and debate it? What ignorant corner of the universe do you inhabit? Ideas are MEANT to be discussed and evaluated. Like it or not, it IS an idea and one that merits examination. If the other side hates it so much, maybe they can finally get around to offering their own idea instead of nonstop criticism of thise trying to be innovative.
