Medicare (option) For All




New poll finds that 39 percent want government to ‘stay out of Medicare.’

Let me say it as simple as I can:

  • Medicare is 100% government health care.
    It works great. Seniors will kill you if you try to take it away from them.

  • Medicaid is 100% government health care.
    It works great. About one fourth of all American Mothers will kill you if you try to take it away from their kids.

  • Veterans Health Care is 100% government health care.
    It works great. Veterans will kill you if you try to take it away from them.

  • Congress itself enjoys 100% government health care.
    It works great. Members of Congress and their families will kill you if you try to take it away from them.


Bottom Line:
Do you want to know what "the public option" is all about?

Simple: It's Medicare for all that want it.

If you don't want it, that's fine: You can keep the insurance plan you have now, and the doctor you have now. No one is proposing to take anything away from you.

That is all.
