Can One of You Numbers People Help Bernie?

Bernie needs to have at his fingertips the financial outline for his health care plan in a form that is clear and concise.

So that HRC can't stand there and claim that, "Those numbers don't add up," like she did last night.

Can one of you assist with that? And post it here?

On a 3X5 card?

Here is Bernie's plan. I think he needs to be more clear about where the $ 6 trillion in savings over ten years will come from.

[Suggestion - Include savings from prescription drug price reform, amazingly, that alone would save about $ 150 billion per year.]
