'We don’t need to raise taxes on the middle class by one penny to finance Medicare for All,' Elizabeth Warren said (corrects typo)

DES MOINES, Iowa—Sen. Elizabeth Warren says that as president she would tap billionaires and large employers to pay the bulk of $20.5 trillion in new spending over a decade to finance her Medicare for All health-care plan, promising to shield most Americans from higher taxes under the proposal.

“We don’t need to raise taxes on the middle class by one penny to finance Medicare for All,” Ms. Warren wrote Friday on the blog site Medium, which came hours ahead of her planned address at a widely watched candidate forum in Iowa.

Humongous lie presented with false math. Warren is a known liar

Well at least us middle class folks will have healthcare when we are living in cardboard boxes due to companies having layoffs bc they can’t afford the tax hikes. ewarren

So after she bankrupts all of the awful, greedy corporations and wealthy she will need to come after the middle class to feed this beast. The joke’s on her. We will all be unemployed because she bankrupted our employers. Oh, actually the joke’s on us.

Bull $hit.

Why is Canada’s middle and upper class citizens taxed at a much higher rate than US citizens. Because they are paying for Medicare.

I can't understand the logic of politicians! Health is a matter concerning one's own body status due to one's own actions. How & why one should be made responsible for other's bodies & take care of it? What about all other bodies barring human bodies in the seas, jungles etc?

Do you not realize that the companies will pass on the cost to the workers? That is what they are doing to us now because they say the cost is too high. So our costs will go up!!! You need to get in touch with real workers.

she will just tax your employer so much that he moves to china with you little job too.

Bring on the poor ppl defending the rich's profits on principle

Liar 🤥

Is she drunk ? Sounds like it

Liar.

You need to raise taxes on every human that works in America, Canada, S. America & EU. It still won’t be enough to cover you grand mastabaiter plan. Asian Math don’t lie my freng.

Keep working, pay taxes. Politicians will spend the money

Isn't she in the wealthy bracket?

She has zero clue on how these things work.

Liar!!!!

Lies, lies, and more lies. The Democrats new mantra to get elected.

It is a matter of math. doctor bill + 32% = private insurance doctor bill + 2% = medicare Even Ray Charles can see which costs less, and he's dead.

Bye Liz

Sounds like every other broken promises every presidential candidate makes. Let’s make food and rent free also.

It's telling that the debates are not addressing the debt these fools have racked up for America. Only questions about how each candidate can hasten America's financial demise.

Problem. So the upper class 1% will pay for Medicare-For-All. What about the whopping deficit? How will that be paid?

I don't understand how this will not hit the middle class.

In the hand of government everything turns into a Ponzi scheme.

Already proven to be a lie by her own numbers.

Lie

Does math not matter anymore. The numbers do not add up

Bullshit

The liberal left with zero common sense. She actually believes people will buy off on her crazy idea!

This is precisely why ewarren is unelectable. Please find a better candidate to beat trumpdick.

What a dimwit, businesses don’t pay tax, all their money comes from the consumers, which is mostly the middle class.

BS. How do u define middle class? What do the tax brackets look like?

And if you like your doctor, you can keep him!

I’m sure the rich will stay to have all their assets taken and corporate America won’t pass on the cost to their customers. ewarren is clueless.

I have a bridge to sell you...

Big fat stinking B.S ...

Lies

Good

Wow she will say anything and her base will buy it.

Total bullshit!

Translation. I will give you this if you vote for me

Hahahahaha hahahahaha

Ridiculous quit fooling yourself and your followers!

Unlike lying, math doesn’t seem to be her strong suit.

$30 trillion..loss of 2 million jobs..unemployment increase..taxes up for middle class

All these status quo bots commenting...

Nice try. Not biting.

Sure. Install a 52 trillion dollar program and only the rich will feel it. Lol. I bet she has a bridge to sell us too.

Warren and Sanders will never beat Trump having “ socialist “ plans and attacks on corporations. USA is not willing to accept any of this at this time . Trump will take full advantage using this ,, just as Scalise used the “ Soviet “ label to trash Dems in impeachment vote

And you if believe Fauxcahontas there’s a bridge in Brooklyn you may be interested in

Bullshit

Sounds good, eat the rich

What the hell did she teach at Havard? It sure as fuck wasn't math.

ewarren

🙄really, there isn’t enough money elsewhere tho.... pay for it yourself

Fake Indian and liar about pregnancy firing is really bad at math.

Yeah right....Actually require the rich to pay taxes rather than have all kinds of exemptions

Many large corporations do not pay their fair share, that much is true. Also, tax charities and churches. Lots of money there and the debt is staggering.

If you like your plan you can keep your plan

NEVER GONNA HAPPEN!

NakeddGardener Seems dishonest. If no premiums, middle class can pay a little more in taxes.

Elvis was sighted! Ugh, delusional beyond stupid!

Fauxcohontas is a Fraud.

Read her lips

What happens when you run out of rich people?

I believe about 1/1024 of what she spews

They will say anything to get elected. Remember when Bush said to read his lips he wouldn't raise taxes. And Obama saying he believed marriage should be between a man and a woman and even admitted he lied to get elected?

That’s a lie

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL ...OL
