According to this person, Bernie's plan will save us all money and ultimately provide a huge tax cut for all Americans.
Person asked me where the Government gets revenue from, I said "taxpayers" and they told me I was wrong.
Can we just send all of these people over to Europe?
Girl told me I don't understand basic math...
Soooo, I had to unload these pesky statistics....45% of Americans pay no income tax, and nearly half of babies born are Medicaid.
M4A will cost the federal government over 4.1 trillion in NEW spending the very first year...and rising every year
M4A premiums will be paid for from the federal government by the taxpayer
of the 150 million tax filers, only about 80 million actually have a positive tax liability... in other word, 70 million of those filers have a zero tax liability (get back all they contributed), or a negative tax liability (get back MORE than they contributed)
4 trillion NEW spending divided by 80 million actual tax payers is (if equal) 50k each tax payer
so how is a person who makes 50k a year, going to see a "cut" if their NEW tax bill is now 50k more than their previous tax bill
then you have all the medicare copays, and denial of care...and the 20% that YOU have to pay since medicare is a 80/20 insurance
no M4A will not be a tax cut for anyone...it will be the death of the middleclass
But if you're satisfied with paying far more than any other country for health care and still risk being denied care because your insurer needs to make a bigger profit on you, then go ahead and support the current system.
Just how would there be so much savings? By eliminating the profits of the insurance companies? I agree that would happen, but it is a small part of total healthcare costs.
If all medical care was at medicare rates, it would precipitate a healthcare crisis, as MANY hospitals and practices would go bankrupt.
Medicare rates tend to be far lower than private insurance, which is why Mayo Clinic and Cleveland Clinic stratify patients according to payer class. If they did not, they would go bankrupt like Henneman did in Philadelphia.

All the more reason to do it.
Let's burn this mother to the ground.
It's the only hope to teach people that statism is an unnatural, immoral, and illogical paradigm.
