Medicare costs $630 billion, it covers 14% of the population.
The oldest and sickest 14% of the population.
Surely you, a doctor, don't think that the average annual health cost for a 70yo is equivalent to the average annual health cost for a 30yo.
Please stop trying to scare the laypeople with this shite. You should know better.

You should know better.
So there is that . . .
Translated to income tax revenue of $1.6 trillion, even Sanders' asininity would nearly double income tax exposure.
Of course Bernie tries to divvy up that tax load into payroll etc.
