And they were too stupid to figure it out.

That's why I think Bernie's Single Payer is DOA

If it doesn't cover illegals the Leftists won't support it

But if it does then everyone else would fight like hell to stop it

Yeah and it's over one trillion dollars in spending

Its more than that

And it won't actually be free healthcare

His plan would raise the payroll tax by like 15%

And also he'll need to hike the payroll tax

and even with it would add like 5 trillion to the debt over 10 years

We'd be fucked if it doesn't deliver an exponential level of efficiency alongside coverage

Don't be too optimistic, Walter,

I remember back in the 1990s,

Yeah and he'll need to really make the Medicare portion of the FICA/SECA tax progressive.

when we defeated the Democrats under Clinton

It would need to not only be hiked massively on the poor but it would need to skyrocket to like

a huge amount

For rich people

We thought we defeated any chance of HillaryCare or any form of government healthcare

Two presidents later,

We get ObamaCare

Right now the Medicare portion is 3% for the common man and once you've already paid in $6000 (which means you make over $200000 per year) you start paying like 1%

His plan is a joke

The healthcare question is really about efficiency and that sort of thing

I think it's a stunt for his 2020 Presidential prospects

Not really how thin you can spread the butter

why else would he release his plan under a Republican administration?

This was an article made in 2016

Indeed.

Right, but he reiterated it just recently

The only way he would get any of his stuff passed is if he packed the courts

Which I'm afraid he would do if elected

If he's planning to run, I don't suspect he's planning to win

I wonder if there will be enough hard-left Democrats to go along with any Sanders legislation

depends

Button Mash

If he has a majority he could face the same problem we're facing now

anybody watching the rally?

I wonder if Manchin and Heidkamp would work with President Sanders
