Doctors cannot simply raise prices when their costs go up. Making them take only Medicare rates would put them out of business.

. The 10-year cost going forward will almost certainly be more than $35 trillion, far more than the $20.5 trillion Warren proposes to spend on “Medicare for all.”

It is truly disingenuous to suggest that Medicare for all is hideously expensive when we are already paying as much or more money through taxes, insurance, out-of-pocket expenses, lower wages and higher costs for everything we buy, and while we still have aboutThe vaunted health insurance from employers that “everyone loves” has been costing more in premiums and out-of-pocket charges due to high deductibles, higher co-pays and uncovered services.

A system that would cover everyone and cost the same would be a great benefit. The likelihood of reducing overall costs would make it even better...Warren is a planner, so besides figuring out how to pay for “Medicare for all,” she needs a plan to deal with objections to using taxpayer funds to pay for reproductive health services like birth control, abortion, sterilization, infertility and more.

These issues tripped up the Obama administration, but it had private insurance companies to cover the gaps.

Billionaires crying. Price gouging hospitals whining. Apparently doctors will go out of business. Just a crock o moose dump.

No, it wouldn't. What a farce of an opinion. Another great endorsement in my opinion.
