Trump’s $500 and $90 Checks EXPOSED: The Election-Year Accounting Gimmick Americans Must Understand

Trump is sending $500 and $90 checks to select Americans before the midterms. Here is why these taxpayer-funded payments are no substitute for real economic relief.

Americans have the right to a job with an adequate wage and decent living. Americans have the right to universal healthcare. This is FDR's dream for the US before he died.

Just like how Trump challenged the establishment of the Republican party. Progressives are challenging the establishment of the Democrat party.

A right-wing caller challenges Medicare for All and defends boat strikes. The response exposes immigrant scapegoating, insurance profits, and the public research behind Big Pharma’s power.

Rahm Emanuel’s Medicare for All Stance Is a Clear and Present Danger for Democrats

Rahm Emanuel’s Medicare for All defeatism risks draining Democratic momentum. The party must confront insurance industry power and fight for healthcare as a human right.

Omg. Healthcare is a basic need, not a luxury. We bail out banks and fund wars why is insulin a GoFundMe? The government’s job is to take care of people. Free healthcare isn’t radical. It’s the bare minimum.
#MedicareForAll #basicneeds #notradical

If I get asked why I'm a socialist, depending on who's asking, I think of responding like this:

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

Trump’s Healthcare Agenda: ACA Cancellations, Higher Costs and Tax Priorities That Favor Wealth

Temporary tax slogans cannot replace reliable healthcare. This analysis examines Trump’s ACA cancellations, the subsidy crisis and the progressive case for universal coverage.

Hello my #American #progressive and #leftist friends!

I want to make sure you all understand that #MedicareForAll is just a stepping stone on the path to #UniversalHealthcare. It’s not the end goal.

Medicare For All just replaces insurance companies deciding what to pay for and how much, with the government deciding what to pay for and how much. And Medicare reimbursement rates are not high enough for doctors and hospitals to survive on.

On October 14 at 8 pm Eastern, join NSP, elected officials, and candidates in a virtual National Town Hall, as we declare our independence from the medical-industrial complex and demand the passage of improved H.R. 3069 (119th Congress), a comprehensive, universal, national Medicare for All, free from profit.

We will not settle for less.

"All of that articulates better Medicare for more people. What I’m articulating is great Medicare for everyone."

El-Sayed:

"Then you start extending it to more people. I think kids are obvious, right? Children, thank God, are uncommonly healthy. And if they’re not healthy, they’re very sick, and so extending it to children is obvious.

Extending it downward, right, from 65 eligibility age to 60, and then down into the 50s, 40s — that’s kind of what needs to happen."

El-Sayed:

"So you’d basically sew up all the parts. You would include a full, robust Part D. You would have vision, dental and hearing. It would go to zero copay, deductible, premium. Done.

At this point, if you offered that as traditional Medicare, the speed with which everybody would jump from Advantage would turn your head. That’s number one."

Klein:

"I mean, that would be hard to take away."

El-Sayed:

"I mean, the whole gambit on Medicare Advantage is we give you some things on the front. We lobby to keep Medicare porous, so then we can offer you quote/unquote 'advantages' like vision, dental and hearing, which normal Medicare doesn’t offer."

El-Sayed:

"So, you would make Medicare whole, because right now Medicare is extremely porous. You talk to seniors, and they’re like: Well, there are all these different parts, and it doesn’t cover vision, dental and hearing, and, and, and —"

Klein:

"And a lot of them are in Medicare Advantage plans…"

El-Sayed:

"And that whole scenario…"

Klein:

"…which are these private plans. And they like them."

El-Sayed:

"The nature of the debate has changed so much because the nature of private health insurance has become so porous and so frustrating for so many.

If we can’t, then the steps, even if you were to pass Medicare for all in January of 2029, where would we go from here? Well, the steps would kind of be the same, because there’s no light switch in the White House that turns on Medicare for all."

Thread 🧵

I saw this video from Abdul El-Sayed, Michigan senate candidate, talking about Medicare for All with Ezra Klein. His discussion has a lot more nuance than I've seen from other folks which makes sense given his background in public health.

I'll post the transcript for this video clip in the replies. Sources posted at the end of this thread including link to podcast and interview with transcript.

Well, this is disappointing.

“In the last three weeks, documents reviewed by Drop Site reveal Jackson’s campaign has held at least three fundraisers with prominent Democratic fundraisers with favorable views of Israel’s military actions in the Middle East.”

Medicare stat (actual) 90% of an elderly person’s wealth currently is expended in the last two years of their lives. Medicare is not a healthcare system. It is a wealth extraction system and the gov’t is well aware of this. This, more than anything is why #medicareforall is being pushed. Control…

This was always going to be the problem with Obamacare. Republicans and SCOTUS tearing it down, piece by piece, until we're back to the shitshow bad old days.

This country desperately needs some sort of universal healthcare. There's plenty of successful examples around the globe to emulate.

Americans, read this article on how Canada got "Medicare for All".

Note especially the language used by the industries that profit from human suffering.

The vehement and moneyed opposition in the US is going to fight. Don’t fall for their BS.
