It’s time to guarantee healthcare to all Americans as a human right--Sen. Sanders

BidenPresident said:
Let’s be clear. The current healthcare system in the United States is totally broken, dysfunctional and cruel. It is a system which spends twice as much per capita as any other major country, while 85 million Americans are uninsured or underinsured, one out of four Americans cannot afford the cost of the prescription drugs their doctors prescribe, and where over 60,000 die each year because they don’t get to a doctor on time.

It is a system in which our life expectancy is lower than almost all other major countries and is actually declining, a system in which working-class and low-income Americans die at least ten years younger than wealthier Americans.

It is a system in which some 500,000 people go bankrupt because of medically related debt.

Remember when we were told of "death panels" and how horrible a national plan would be because we'd have to wait for MONTHS to get appointments and treatment? Guess what? It's already like that in many places. And we already have death panels. They're called health care plan administrators and THEY decide if your proposed diagnostics or surgery or meds or therapy will be covered. My youngest has MS. Her neurologist has to write to her insurance company in order for them to cover her very, very expensive medicines -- the medicines that keep her functional and able to work and earn a living. It takes her weeks to schedule her annual MRIs that follow the regression or progression of her disease.

The current system is crap. Medicare for all is a much better idea.

Yes. And you're right about the other stuff too.

How much of a liar are you, My wife was in an emergency room and the person in the curtain next to us was being sent away because they did not accept her insurance. They were making calls to other hospitals to see if they would see her. Do you really believe all the crap they feed you? Pile on the childish insults. That is all you have. The rule is they have to stabilize someone. They ship them out if they want to.
