@PoliticalSci Oh, is that right? That's a talking point that Bernie supporters ALL use, and it can't be further from the truth. All that is required is LIFE SAVING treatments, and even then, an attempt is made to bill them. Go ahead. Go to the hospital, and see what the FIRST STEP is. It's an interview to ascertain your insurance, or credit card information. And you say it's a WHAAAAT? Very small part of our spending? It's bringing California to the brink of bankruptcy! Any state that decided to go it alone, and cover their non insured hospital patients, QUICKLY dropped the idea! Now,let me clue you in. Cosmetic surgery (not covered by insurance) has fallen dramatically over the last twenty years. Meanwhile, non elective, or emergency surgery has SKYROCKETED because Uncle Sam pays the bill through Medicare! When people have to pay themselves, they shop for better prices. Think CELLPHONE PLANS. While when someone else picks up the tab, there's no incentive to reduce costs. Finally, ILLEGAL aliens can come here to have babies, which makes them eligible for citizenship!! You'll have a FLOOD of immigrants from poor countries, with millions of unskilled, uneducated labor that will DESTROY job opportunities for African Americans and our entry level high school grads. If "we already pay" then why take away people's private plans? If according to Bolshevik Bernie, there's no difference, then why change?
