  1. Kathryn Savage what? I don’t understand. There isn’t anyone offering a better and faster transition to Medicare for all than Bernie. How would you qualifying for Medicare mean you can’t see your doctor anymore? His plan requires doctors to accept patients. They only way they could refuse you as a patient would be if the dr opted out completely and became a cash only dr. Which means they wouldn’t be taking your son or any others who are on private insurance, and the number of doctors going that way will be few.

  2. Tom Schmidt good luck to you! If you don’t already know about the Medicare compare tool check it out https://www.medicare.gov/blog/shop-compare-plans-now-with-the-new-medicare-plan-finder I hope Bernie’s bill passes. The current system is a pain in the butt for some. My mom has an advantage plan with AARP united healthcare. Her monthly premiums are under $25 a month. (She’s on a pretty basic dental plan tho.) However she really gets great care and there’s very little out of pocket. She had a friend who was paying hundreds a month and it just seemed like highway robbery. I encouraged her to attend those informative community meetings they do, to grill them with questions...and not make any immediate decision, but to wait until she came home to carefully consider and go over which ones would cost her the least for her particular situation.

  3. DS Grant supplemental is allowed on Bernie’s plan in the senate and Jayapals complementary plan in the house. You probably wouldn’t need it, but if you want it you could get it.

  4. Darren Skjoelsvold i was expecting some nightmare figure in the tens of thousands of dollars! $50? 😄 wow that’s awesome. Compared to what it’d be here in the US, that’s practically free.

  5. The new Medicare for all bill by Bernie vastly simplifies and improves the current complicated system.

  6. He’s also a professor, and an economist. But you go on about casting doubts on the “legidimacy”. Lol I’d love to hear what you have to say about Trumps Secretary of education.
