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.

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."

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."
