Seeking a Dangerous, Exorbitant Fantasyland? Choose “Medicare for All”
Item: Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, on the website pushing his “Medicare for All” scheme, proclaims: “Health care must be recognized as a right, not a privilege. Every man, woman and child in our country should be able to access the health care they need regardless of their income. The only long-term solution to America’s health care crisis is a single-payer national health care program.”
Saying that the “Affordable Care Act [ObamaCare] was a critically important step towards the goal of universal health care,” the site notes that “Bernie’s plan would create a federally administered single-payer health care program.”
Sanders also maintains that the “typical middle class family would save over $5,000 under this plan.”
