What he's saying is the government controls your healthcare, the government controls how much Doctors can charge, the government sets prices and runs everything, and they decide who gets what care. In his brain, that sounds appealing.

Who said health insurance can’t get more expensive than it already is? Well this would be the way to do it.

Prices would probably stay similar, but care and wait times would get much worse.

They want control over the general population. That’s all that is about.

Why stop at insurance?

They should go after means of production, supply chain, food and communications as well.

He didn't identify what classes of people will pay for it and what classes get it for 'free'?

I've never understood the allure of "free healthcare" to the left.

Ignoring that nothing is free, why healthcare? Maslow's hierarchy doesn't begin there. Why not food, shelter, or clothing? We have food and housing assistance programs, but the left never clamors that food and housing should be free.

Yikes. Thankfully, a junior Senator from Michigan can't do squat, even if elected, but crazy that this is being viewed as a new, mainline idea for dems.

Auto, home owners, life, general liability, workers comp are all fair game once the box is open.

The "government", both local and federal, can't accurately tell you where the frick half of your tax dollars actually go. They are complicit in the fraud/theft that has ravaged this country.

What could possibly go wrong here?

It would be a new way to cancel those they don't agree with.

These people are frickin retarded on a level that is unbelievable but they think they are the smartest at everything.

I would say that stupid fricker probably can't balance his checkbook, which probably has money in it that his parents are giving him that they worked for.

Isn't this clown the one with a joint checking account with Mommy or is it the other clown from Maine?

All these commie fricks are blending together.
