Sixth - Snatch $2.4 trillion in cash from the world's billionaires (assuming that wouldn't crash the worldwide economy ... which it would) and divide it among the 99%ers in the US (about 319 M people) and we all walk away with a one-time payment of - $7,500. Yeah, that's all of it.

Seventh - And, of course, that's only a one-shot deal. Medicare for All will require $10,000 per recipient for every year going forward,  increasing as time goes on. Tax burden increases on all of us and pretty soon we're all paying 50%-60% and then the government starts reducing available medical care quality to cut costs ... as they do in other countries now.

So, it's not that I think you should have to be rich to afford medicare care. It's that I think medical insurance -- if it exists at all -- should conform to economic reality and I think I'd rather have access to actual medical care rather than pay for placebo medical insurance.

It's not about a lack of compassion. It's about understanding reality.
