Wonder why not Medicaid, it’s actually better than Medicare
Bernie’s Medicare for all is improved Medicare that covers dental and vision in addition to medical.
The premise & language of the bill is even more comprehensive than even Medicaid but there are a ton of negative stigma attached to the Medicaid term. The biggest hurdle will be to keep lobbyists away from it so Republicans can’t screw it up.
Medicare for All is a terrible idea.

Wrong…quite the opposite….Medicaid is not comprehensive and dosen’t pay for a lot of things.
+David Lafleche Lmao Private health Insurance is worse lol
So glad she’s my congresswoman
Keep voting for her she is badass.
a racist anti-American member of a death cult? Yeah, totally awesome…..
+MediaMatters IsMyCockHolster prove what you just said
Thanks to Bernie.
Dental needs to be included in Med4All, otherwise, insurance companies will still be profit motivated.
It is included in the improved Medicare for All plans….so is vision
Bernie explains that the Medicare for all Universal Healthcare would also include Dental & Vision. This always what I hear when he’s talking about the plan… So I don’t think you would have to worry about that part. I think it would truly be a relief to have Universal Healthcare.
Load up on the goodies not going to get anyway..
Medicare for all…we need automation…automation asap in the medical field will lower the cost drastically…
People that own automation like to make money off the automation. No automatic cost reductions especially if hospitals are for profit.
I just dont understand why we cant have affordable health care, private insurance, and a government option that can exist all together. We are force to have goverment or private, but why cant we have all three?
m o n e y . . . . .
Private insurance wants all of your money – and then kills you (in extreme conditions.)
But..but..we can’t afford cheaper health care. Snark
We will still have to pay for a supplemental plan via insurance companies for Co-pays, deductibles, prescriptions, vision and dental
No…..this is IMPROVED medicare for all, it’s 100% coverage including Dental and Eye, no co-insurance needed.
+WitchesBrew Loading up on the goodies not going to get anyway.
My bill is the only one out there, that addresses all these issues. Ye take the widows an orphans mutual insurance, away from the Quakers, give it to the Mormons to sell to the Amish. simple case closed. Or as Allen Greenspan said to Ryan, in one minute. One minute, he summed it all up. “How do ye set-up a system, which, assures, real assets that are created, in which those benefits are employed to purchese. ” but i forget what the question was, All go out, and come back in again
I would prefer Nationalizing Medicine and pharma they had their chance and screwed everyone so take it away
medicine is an international science, pharmacists fill prescriptions, over time doctors die, patients differ. Health if like the weather, everybody talks about it, nobody changes it
Under today’s charges against Assange, the U.S. government could also execute Glen Greenwald and other real international journalists. Fortunately for you, you haven’t said anything independent of the establishment narrative in years. You aren’t even reporting on the most important issue facting America in its history.
What ? We have very serious differences about how WikiLeaks information made its way to the public. – Glen Greenwald
Tom…You do know you can call her “Congresswoman” and not just Congressmember correct? Lol
The dinosaurs in Congress and all political parties better get with the new program. Medicare for all is coming whether they like it or not. It’s the right thing to do.
Medicare for all will not be coming for at least 20 to 40 years.
Thom and team must never sleep. I watched this show live yesterday; Hartman is great at focusing on issues that matter & trying to find common ground on common sense issues. I’m grateful for their public service.
