How does one think $32 trillion will be paid for? And the negative shit that comes with it? No thanks.

Bernie Sanders Dodges Question About The Cost For His Socialist Health Care Utopia

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) is pushing his single-payer health care initiative. Alternatively called Medicare-for-All, the self-described democratic socialist has decided now was the time to split his party in two over this issue. It’s going to call for $32 trillion in new taxes; it’s not going anywhere. Sanders even had Canadian doctors flown in to help sell his left wing health care revamp, but even they admitted that single-payer systems breed long wait times. In Canada and the United Kingdom, at least one million people cannot find a general practitioner. Resources run low and doctors go on strike because their paychecks are cut in cost-saving measures. Access to specialized care, treatments, and medicines will have to be reduced in order to cut costs. More taxes for reduced access in care. That’s sounds like a bad bargain.

On Meet the Press over the weekend, host Chuck Todd decided to replay the tape of then-Mayor of Burlington Bernie Sanders, who admitted that expanding Medicaid, the government-run health care program for the working poor, to everyone would bankrupt the nation back in 1987. Todd asked him about that, noting that on paper, it gets high marks until voters see the details. Sanders decided to deploy evasive maneuvers and make slight jabs at news networks for not devoting adequate time for his socialist takeover of health care (via Meet The Press):
