I just wish that the entire 30-minute speech was on Bernie's site, where he explains the program. I keep trying to find it so I can pass it around to people who do not understand that Medicare for All is not like the present Medicare system -- it is much better. It needs to be explained to people. We need the entire video.

This is excellent - one of the few voices of reason left in the US Government.

Senator, maybe you should have directly linked this video on your facebook post, instead of the roundabout way. People don't seem to read so much, these days.

Only the misinformed thinks that the Barack Obama Healthcare Plan is "socialized medicine." Not even the "single payer approach" is socialistic, but what Bernie Sanders is proposing is the BEST alternative to solve this health care crisis. To hell with not only red neck right-wing Republicans opposed to any public medical care; those blue dog corporate whores in the Democratic Party that has obstructed Single Payer, pissed away the Public Option, and neutered Medicare buy ins can go to hell.

Look. You're a grown person. You really need to get a grip. What laws are you referring to? I understand you might not agree that everyone needs to have health insurance, but I'm sure you have car insurance, and I don't hear you complaining on that. Plus, no one is sitting on death row for not having insurance. Some of the bill will go in effect now, mainly for children (Oh Lordy! They're poisoning our youth!), but money from taxes has to go into a program before it can fully take effect.

Look with BHO everything is must do it now, or the world will end. When is everyone going to see through this fraud! This healthcare scam is just a massive grab for power. Only thing in these bills is more LAWS AND RESTRICTIONS FOR US! If this damn health care bill is so important, why does it wait to go into effect till 20014. What about all them people that don't have health insurance, how's that going to do them any good now. ALL POLITICS. BHO SHOULD BE IMPEACHED! CONGRESS ARE TRAITORS

one of the few legislators that isn't working for big insurance and big pharma.

Golly, I'm starting to believe that our politicians don't have our best interests at heart!

Then they pay to sit in the emergency room, and wait several hours to see a doctor eventually. Then the hospital has to eat the cost of the patient because there's literally no way to collect from people that can't afford a regular practitioner, so they have to raise prices for everyone else. This is why the paper bowl I threw up in cost $28 instead of the two cents it cost the hospital to buy it.
The two sides are basically UHC and "the poor don't deserve health care." Sorry, dude.
