I am, as well as about 165 million other Americans on an employer supported group health plan.

Trumps right

Estimates are that healthcare would cost between 15-20,000 per person or @$8trillion more in taxes a year.

Guess who would have to bear that cost?
Less than 10% of the population

We have $40 trillion in debt and run over $2trillion deficit a year as we only bring in @$4 trillion a year. Add $8 trillion more and it becomes real clear that a national plan simply isn’t affordable

That said, republicans need to come up with a plan because this thing isn’t going away.

Thankfully Trump should be about ready to share his Healthcare plan, maybe within two weeks or so

Yeah - Obamacare kind of made a bad system much worse exponentially but no one sees that if one thinks Medicare for all is the answer. Medicare at best covers fixed costs for hospitals or medical practices.

Why do you Medicare-for-all supporters never explain how it will be paid for
