Reply #35: Medicare for all who want it. [View All]

Expanding Medicare would be the best public option. Customer satisfaction high. Mixture of public and private-- medical services privately provided, between you and your doctors; payments and cost controls publicly administered, accountable to all of us.

We tried to make things easy for the insurance companies to compete the last time the public called out for national health insurance and they have had over ten years to prove their case and they have failed miserably. Costs soared and millions more people lost their coverage. 47,000,000 of our fellow citizens are left out in the cold.

We can't leave our fellow citizens uninsured and bankrupt any longer.
