$32.6 trillion dollars. That's how much Washington Democrats' single-payer healthcare proposal would cost over 10 years. Even doubling all federal individual and corporate income taxes wouldn't cover this cost. It is just absurd. ~ @SpeakerRyan When someone says that Medicare for all costs $32 trillion, we should mention how our current system costs $49 trillion. Medicare for All would take the excessive costs of insurance, hospital facility fees, and prescription drugs out of the equation.

Gonna start a company where people pay me $400/month for access to pizza, and when they want pizza they can call me for preauthorization and I'll tell them where they can go, how much they can buy, and what kind they can get. My company will pay for 50% after the first $250 spent. ~ @Progressive_RN
It's weird how American propaganda tries to justify the cost of their healthcare by trying to make people believe the almost free healthcare we have in Europe is shitty and we're all just living in squalor hoping we can move to the US at some point to live out our American dream. ~ @afterglowws
This 2-year old's family couldn't afford his $20,000 electric wheelchair, and their insurance didn't cover it. So, a high school robotics team built him one for free. ~ @CBSNews This country is so accustomed to its monstrous health care system that when a 2-year -old child with a genetic condition needs to rely on a high school robotics team to meet his basic health care needs the media thinks its a feel-good story, not a dystopian nightmare. ~ @Public_Citizen
