@Jeffy11098558 @LostDiva @connoramulhern @joeyjguarino YOU are not the primary reason for a universal system. You are already highly subsidized and should be grateful for it. M4A will never pass anyway.

[david schwertfeger @davidschwertfe2]

@FlorenceKitty @DSA_Watch The reason you don't have M4A is it doesn't work and further doesn't satisfy the needs of the healthcare system. If you bother to look around you...there are 1.1M Drs & 6200 hospitals. How many of them are here supporting you??? Drs have had their own opposition plan since 1989.

@l_DarkChocolate @CyrusVinci87033 @mattyglesias MEDICARE IS THE REASON WHY YOU PAY 2X AS MUCH.

@TheLastSon38 @idesofmarch205 @ClippingWings Medicare and Medicaid already control healthcare and have for a long time. They are provably responsible for all dysfunction in the system.

@RepMarkPocan AS WRITTEN IT WILL COST ADDITIONAL $1.5-$2TRILLION ADDITIONAL. DONE RIGHT...NOTHING.

@DarrigoMelanie @skrossa @TheTNHoller MEDICARE4ALL IS NOT A UNIVERSAL SYSTEM OR CLOSE TO IT.

@judithperes @SenSanders @SenWarren @LeaderJohnThune @ChrisMurphyCT @brianstelter @RBReich @RepJeffries @SpeakerJohnson @BillKristol @paulkrugman @DrJoanneLynn For profit medicine was allowed by RICHARD NIXON...HMO ACT 1973.

@MoJoNorthElm @PeteButtigieg I created M4A in 1991. That ship sailed along time ago. Medicare today is the sole basis for the dysfunction that exists within the healthcare system. M4A will never pass. There is a better way.

@FannanManshury @yareyoustupid @vj19pr @_Credible_Hulk EXACTLY. WELL SAID...

[david schwertfeger @davidschwertfe2]

@yareyoustupid @vj19pr @_Credible_Hulk Some believe in the eyes of God we are all created equal. In reality not so. Not in terms of motivation, intelligence, health, opportunity or access. That doesn't mean we shouldn't all be treated equally. I believe all have a talent. Many never have the opportunity to discover it

@womenoptionswin LOOK AROUND THIS PLACE. THEY ARE EVERYWHERE.

@MAHA_Action WHO LET THAT HAPPEN??? OBAMACARE ENROLLMENT IS HANDLED BY THE STATE...NOT INSURANCE COMPANIES. A SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER IS THE FIRST STEP IN THE PROCESS.

@GoViRaLFG @ProgressivePuns @Microinteracti1 THANKS. GOOD TO KNOW.

[david schwertfeger @davidschwertfe2]

@judithperes THE CAP WILL RAISE PREMIUM COSTS TO COVER IT JUST LIKE THE CAP ON PRESCIPTION DRUGS. PREMIUMS FOR ME WENT UP OVER $500 PER YEAR. THIS WILL BE MORE AS TRADITIONAL MC HAS NO OUT OF POCKET LIMIT.

[david schwertfeger @davidschwertfe2]

@ProgressivePuns @GoViRaLFG @Microinteracti1 IT DEPENDS. THERE ARE DIFFERENT FORMULATIONS. THE BASIC FORMULA IS $35. MANY PEOPLE, LIKE MY MOTHER CAN'T USE IT FOR A VARIETY OF REASONS. THEY STILL PAY FULL PRICE FOR THE OTHERS.

[david schwertfeger @davidschwertfe2]

@Microinteracti1 THERE IS NOTHING EXCPTIONAL HERE BEYOND WILLFUL IGNORANCE. WELL PRESENTED. THANK YOU.

[david schwertfeger @davidschwertfe2]

@HS19661966 @axios MC HERE IS WAY DIFFERENT THAN ANYWHERE ELSE. IT IS A HIGHLY CONVOLUTED & COMPLEX PUBLIC PROGRAM THAT OPERATES BY PAYING THE HEALTH SYSTEM LESS THAN COST. WORKING AMERICANS ARE CHARGED DOUBLE TO COVER THOSE LOSSES. PER $; MEDICAID 72 CENTS; MEDICARE $1; PVT INSURANCE $2 ON AVERAGE

[david schwertfeger @davidschwertfe2]

@HS19661966 @lucianna71428 @axios PART OF THAT IS THE FACT THAT THE US PAYS 300% MORE FOR THE DRUGS TO BEGIN WITH THAN AUSTRALIA AND MOST EVERY OTHER COUNTRY. THEN TRUMP PUT TARIFFS ON THE DRUGS OTHER COUNTRIES MAKE FOR US RAISING THE PRICE MORE.

[david schwertfeger @davidschwertfe2]

@MarkWarnerVA I CAN AND HAVE ALREADY BUILT IT.

[david schwertfeger @davidschwertfe2]

@USEquityManager @0neUSAgal @forallcurious THE MONEY TO MAKE IT UNIVERSAL AS IT WAS DONE ALL WRONG SO APPLIED THE UNIVERSAL LAW TO THE INDIVIFUAL MLT. YOU KNOW HOW THAT WORKED OUT. THE TWO DON'T MIX. IT CAN BE FIXED AND REMAINS THE UNIVERSAL SYSTEM YOU ARE ALL LOOKING FOR. M4A IS AN IMPOSSIBLE TASK.
