#Medicare4All would completely remove the for profit middleman. Such economic bloodsucking is totally unnecessary.
JUST IN: UnitedHealth Group’s 2021 earnings report is the biggest in health insurance history with $24 Billion in profits. This was announced just days after the Commonwealth Fund's report that showed deductibles are skyrocketing for Americans. wendellpotter.substack.com/p…

Our medical data is centralized and in possession of mainly two vendors. #Epic & #Cerner. Without realizing this fact we surrendered our medical privacy. This is dangerous! Nefarious govt. actors will retrieve our medical records and use them against us. We must DECENTRALIZE!

God knows we already have enough blood sucking politicians.

Naive. Would have corrupt government running one more thing- lining their own pockets. You possibly mean well but are ignorant on the subject. Half of my family lives in Canada and have to come over to the states and pay out of pocket for *many* things. This is a terrible idea.

Government should not have a monopoly on healthcare. Such monopolies have decreased quality of care in Canada and UK and caused them to outsource innovation to the US.

My idea has been a Medical Expenses cap. Everyone pays out of pocket until a cap is reached based on wealth/income. After that you can just send the bill to the govt. It's better than M4A because it keeps prices low by forcing the public to pay. But no one will be blown out.

The healthcare insurance industry is just a legalized racket, with ever increasing premiums and deductibles , people get drained of precious resources that they could spend on actual healthcare!

It will save money. There is absolutely no reason not to have #MedicareForAll other than our elected officials have chosen insurance industry profits instead of human health. Plain and simple. thehill.com/blogs/congress-b…
