As a hardcore liberal, I can't see how medicare for all can possibly work. Old people who are on medicare have spent a life time of working paying into the system. If we add all these other extra people, some have not paid a cent into the system, where on Earth will the extra funding come from?

This is a terrible idea.

Neither can the liberal politicians... it's not meant to work, it's meant to trick people into voting for the Democratic Party... the whole, money is evil didn't work, the white man is going to get you didn't work, free your sexuality didn't work, they have just run out of ideas on how to get people to vote for them... so they went back to free money! Their ideas are as old as their members...

It must be terrible for you... lied to, deceived, and yet you keep voting for those liberal liars and cheats... I paid my Medicare in my paycheck, i'd be happy to drop out, if you will give me my money back... along with SS...

I am not for Medicare for all. But it would be funded by taxes, premiums, copays, deductibles and Federal deficit spending. Just like Medicare today.

You''d spend it, lose it, be broke in short order. As most people would.

That is a good point. Unless you earn over $250k/year, the portion of FICA taken out of your paychecks is a small enough amount that the majority of people wouldn't think to invest it or save it and would probably spend it, and then come 67, the money wouldn't be there...

I think it's great.

Trump will not be in office forever and once the Democrats import enough voters they'll control both Houses of Congress and the Presidency then we'll have open borders, steady immigration on top of that and Medicare for all. LOL!!!

I really can't wait. That'll be the final nails in the third world ****t Pitt this country has become and is becoming.

LMAO I still can't get over it. A Party who wants non-stop immigration from mostly third world countries and cradle to grave socialized health care.

Wait to see how that works out!!!!!!!

Insane!!!
