Although it's called Medicare, Canada's system is more like Medicaid for all, with the federal government splitting costs with states, and the states administering it. Why couldn't US states have their own purely state funded Medicaid expansion, for all, that goes beyond what the federal government helps pay for? And then work on getting the federal government to help cover everyone.

@ricardocabeza6006 How does something that ends up costing less, overall, bankrupt a state?

@JaysSavvy You're lying. It does cost less overall. The CBO itself has even researched the cost of multiple different Medicare for all options, and found that all but one cost less overall. Every other developed country has lower per capita costs.

@JaysSavvy But real life doesn't contradict the study (by the CBO, not a college). I live in Canada, dumb dumb. I've been to multiple countries, including all but 4 US states. I have plenty of real world perspective. You're lying.

@JaysSavvy But I have been treated in the US, while there (didn't go there to be treated), have seen others treated, and heard first hand accounts of how others were treated. I was with an organization for people with disabilities, for over 20 years. You're mental telepathy appears to not work. You haven't guessed one thing right about me. You mean like Insulin? HAART? Medium 199 and "Toronto method"? T-cell receptor gene? Cystic fibrosis gene? ... Canada has had plenty of medical breakthroughs. Canada, and many other developed countries, put out more scientific publications per capita than the US does. Specifically biomed, the US comes in 11 and Canada 13, per capita. Canada has slightly more hospital beds and doctors per capita, for half the cost. Canada has a higher life expectancy, and lower infant and maternal mortality. You're spewing bullshit.
