This is more pie in the sky dreaming. If it were possible a politician would run with a promise of free Medicare and win. Both parties know the country, with a 26T debt, cannot afford it.

If people had free healthcare think of all the more discretionary spending they could do. Think how much healthier and happier they would be at work, how much more productive & less stressed they would be. All that means money. That is how we would pay for it.

Medicate 4 all. A typo but accurate. 😉 Medicare today has billions in fraud and abuse. Not sure we want to quintupile down in that.

Billions in fraud. See ABC News report here. It is widely known and documented there are billions in fraud and abuse in the Medicare system. Here's a report by Diane Sawyer ABC News. youtube.com/KsO1QOsF_w8 She states fraud may be as high as $90B a year.

bit.ly/2RyZafQ 5 minute video which explains in layman's terms based off the 2014 Princeton study, the USA = oligarchy. The more the public wants something, statistically, the least likely they are to get it whilst the oligarchs get what they want 80% of the time. #M4A

Provide Americans w/ the Western World's standard of civilization and medical care? Why, Yes. Tell Medical Industry utilities & monopolists to find something more constructive to do? Why, Yes again.

They already "won"; they stopped Bernie Sanders from getting the nomination (and also stopped you and Tulsi Gabbard and Andrew Yang from doing better than you did). They don't care enough about winning to give people something that popular and beneficial.

The way that’s worded, for the layman, it means that 23% of non republicans Do Not want Universal Healthcare. 😂😂😂
