We need Medicare for All

- Here is the simple reality: At one point or another, we're all going to need to see a doctor. But our health care system remains unaffordable, inaccessible, and deeply dysfunctional. It is unacceptable. We need Medicare for All.
How can we make it happen?
Please expose any politician who will not vote for Medicare for All.
They must be voted out of office.
Yes! It must be a litmus test! Supporting progressive people!
Isn’t this what the advocates of ForceTheVote were getting at?
Biden said he would veto Medicare for All
Well, you can start by voting for Marianne Williamson in the Democratic primary.
Unlike Biden, she stands for: universal healthcare, strong climate action, reparations, native American justice, a ceasefire now, and free college and tech school. Visit her website for more info.
Shame on Bernie for endorsing Biden in the primary!
The problem, is that one party is very proud of being against free healthcare. They think it makes them look strong, when the reality is that Bernie Sanders is 100x the man Donald Trump is and ever will be.
Bernie is a champion. I love and support him. Thank you, Bernie.
Its got to be so stressful for our Dr's to see people going without medical and meds they can't afford . Vote blue to save American democracy for our children's future.
Folks voted blue twice but blue cheated Bernie -- who polled better than Trump - out of the nomination which gave us Trump. See how blue has failed us and is a fraud?
It's obviously not for a lot of them.
Biden had his 4 years, where's our healthcare?
Capitalism is soul crushing enough, but to not give everyone healthcare is disgusting. I'm Canadian, and sadly we are likely going to have a populist as our next Prime Minister :(
Please, my brothers to the south, vote for anyone other than Trump. It's not just your country that's at stake. Both parties are NOT the same
Lol. You Canadians are literally trading one drama queen for another. Canada hasn't had good governance for a long time now. It's a popularity contest and only the biggest wind bags get the prize.
We need Medicare for All, therefore we must also invest in more Healthcare workers and infrastructure!
More hospitals, more union workers staffing those hospitals, and more importantly, non-profit hospitals.
Do you know the ONLY "1st World" nation that does not have a Universal Health Care System?
I will give you one guess?
Even many "3rd-World" nations, like Thailand & Uganda are able to offer this service to it's citizens.
*Thailand’s wins praise for universal care coverage...*
_"In its Global Tuberculosis Report 2023 published earlier this month...only Thailand stands out as having a high service coverage index (82 in 2021) and a low level of catastrophic health expenditures (2% of households)._

When Bernie donates 80% of his millions I'll officially become a socialist.
He is so rich off capitalism, owns four majestic homes, lives a lavish lifestyle, yet he wont open his purse to the poor. There's no other way to see him than a grifter. He SOLD out twice. Never forget that.
So, why BERNIE is Medicare For All NOT voted on the Senate floor? It should would help to know who votes against it. Then,they could be voted out of office. Hey BERNIE, which piece of legislation have you drafted which was passed by Congress and made law? Please stop talking and get a vote so, once again, those politicians who vote no need to be known.
@@BobDAprileCTROCKS He's got a big mouth, but he can barely lift a pen to write another million dollar book about the evils of capitalism. The irony is astounding.
In Spain, you fall and break up your legs. You get treated, you get medicines, you get therapy, you get a note so you get disability payments and you walk. And you don't pay for ANYTHING. Here you have sell your house to pay for the part of the bills even insurance won't cover, you lose your job and at best get a free wheelchair from a charity NOT affiliated with the government. Let's face it, we play Russian Roulette every day in this country. Why?
It's insane for such a developed country.
Same in Australia.
Canadian healthcare is far from amazing, and it's probably worse than most developed European countries; but I can honestly say I've never put off seeing a Doctor because it would cost me money. Life is hard enough, to deny healthcare is comic book villainy.
Why? Because stupid people vote for the Jerks who support those corporations.
You talk about seventy percent of the houses being destroyed. How the hell can there only be twenty six thousand people murdered
I wish Bernie was president and I wish we had a full Congress of people just like him.
I wish he fought harder to wrest the nomination from Hillary in 2016..he would probably be potus now🤒
Yes healthcare for all now!
Biden says no! Get it? Cornel West '24'.
@danielhealy9725 Unfortunately, we have two choices. Cornel isn't one.
The problem continues to be Campaign Finance Reform. When we finally get the money out of politics our representatives will be able to legislate for the people and not for their donors.

#forcethevote
It's a bird, it's a plane, No It Is Bernie and Medicare for all! Infinite blessings to Bernie Sanders! Thank You My Friends!!!
Put Congress on Medicare.
They'll get it fixed if it is in their best interest.
Most of them are old enough to be on it. But their donors are more premier in their minds than empathy. ☹️
Absolutely correct.
We should have an army of Bernies who speak the simple truth that healthcare is a human right and we Americans are being screwed.
But we don't. The ONLY candidate in the current presidential primaries who advocated for M4A was Marianne Williamson, but she has now suspended her campaign. Until we get $$$ out of the electoral system, discussion of M4A as a policy option will be blocked by corporate media and the DNC.
We don't have health or care here in America. Having Medicare is like having a target on you, you won't live long with it.
Right. Medicaid about to go broke, so give it to everyone for free.
We're busy paying for Israeli Health Care
@@edwardroche2480
Better than paying those costs for illegal aliens coming over our border.
Canadians have universal healthcare since the early nineteen sixties . I am seventy-six , I have diabetes , all my prescription drugs are covered , with a hundred dollar deductible each year . I had a hip replacement last April . I went in for surgery on the 27 th and was out at two in the afternoon the 28 th . I walked to the taxi and came home . I have had no problem with the hip since then . I am fortunate that I am in good health and otherwise fairly robust . When you have any medical procedures here everything is covered by your medical plan . In the States everything is run by big money , including their healthcare , which is a huge profit for the powers that be , at the expense of the most vulnerable . Bernie has taken buses of women dealing with cancer from Vermont to Montreal , fifty miles away , to buy the life saving medication they desperately need at pharmacies for one tenth of the price in the States . You have been paying thru the nose for too long . I have been listening to Bernie for years now , and it is unbelievable that you still don't have universal healthcare . Your G O P want to take away what ever coverage you do have . When was America great for anyone except big money ? You have all been had . Wake up !
Do you see what is happening in Canada by people like Doug Ford and other conservative premiers?
I truly LOVE SENATOR SANDERS ....HE IS ONE OF THE SENATORS THAT TRULY CARE ABOUT THE AMERICAN CITIZEN & SENIORS....YES, TO MEDICARE 4 ALL... VOTE BLUE 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊

I love Senator Sanders. But let me say that Medicare (which I am on) is hardly perfect. I still have to fight through “the nightmare of health insurance bureaucracies” and the prescription drugs are still crazy expensive. I would gladly pay more taxes to not have to deal with the current system.
Communism has no place in America.
Healthcare being tied to employment protects the economy from from collapse under the burden of bad lifestyle choices, strikes and freeloaders.
Imagine the chaos if no one had to work. Individuals need an incentive to work. No more freeloading.
Love this man he will do it when we win in 2024 ! The most wonderful president we never had Thank you Bernie❤️❤️♥️♥️
❤Bernie sanders speaks out for Medicare for all ❤
Eliminating Healthcare and Insurance CEO compensation and stock buybacks pays for all Americans healthcare.
More than pays for it. Positive vibes from New Hampshire, remember to be kind to each other and yourself during these trying times.
I wish we were talking about this more instead of which bathrooms people should be allowed to use or what race and sexual orientation a super hero is in a movie. If I didn't know any better, I would think we are being purposefully divided to keep us occupied on stuff that doesn't matter, and to prevent common people from rallying around issues that do matter and would genuinely impact our lives in a positive way. Why, because it would cost the very rich too much of their vast wealth. They would rather hoard it like a dragon.

Exactly
Those are diversion tactics politicians use to stab us in the back and rob us blind
Corporate healthcare is also bad for small business. As an entrepreneur, it's way cheaper to hire outside the country or even start your business in another country where there's free healthcare than have to cover the outrageous costs of employee healthcare. The lack of free healthcare is stifling innovation and causing brain-drain.
I have a family member who works for a big insurance company and has coverage through that employer. They needed a root canal, but ended up getting the tooth pulled because there were no in network dentists anywhere nearby and an out of network root canal was going to cost several thousand dollars. That same family member was recently denied a chest x-ray at a hospital ER when they went in with breathing difficulties and thought they had progressed to pneumonia. The hospital said they would only do the x-ray if they brought in a doctor’s note. Fortunately, and no thanks to the medical system, they have finally recovered. We desperately need Medicare for all.
Thank you, Bernie. You are the ONLY one proposing the obvious solution.
Thank you for trying to help us Bernie. I wish there were more like you.
Please understand how much better your lives will be. Please support this.
He looks a lot healthier than Biden or Trump..... Too bad he didn't make the presidency due to the fact that he is just too much of nice guy.
Big corporate is scared of progress and worried they may not be able to scrape every penny off our flesh in PROFITS! People over Profits!
*due to the fact that cowards allowed the DNC to steal the Iowa caucus....twice in a row.
I was going to say the same thing!!!!
Bernie should be running!
Bernie didn’t make it to the Presidency because WE, the voters, are too ignorant and keep voting for the same people, expecting different results.
He definitely is a lot healthier than Trump. it's unfortunate that there's a large portion of Americans that weren't taught critical thinking skills, and treat politics like it's a sport, and that's exactly what one party banks on :(
Just imagine if we had all of Washington who followed this man's lead. A better life for all would be such a great thing to have in this country.
Medicare for all is the way, the current system is foolish by comparison. Nationalized healthcare is proven better every time. Thanks for fighting for this Bernie!
I wouldn't call MFA nationalization. The basic infrastructure remains in private hands.
I went to college in Canada and lived & worked there for a long time. I came back to the States upon request of family. The universal healthcare in Canada was so wonderful. I never would have known what we are missing in the US, if I had never lived in Canada.
Don't forget that MFA would take out the expense of thousands of Lobbyists working for the health care industry.
WE DESPERATELY NEED THIS! LET'S FIGURE THIS OUT!
Thank you Mr. Sanders. We need to make it as easy as possible for everyone to have access to healthcare, mental healthcare, dental care. Even Sri Lanka provides healthcare to all their citizens. They have better health outcomes, and they do it for less money.
2x as much with half the coverages! They expect you to pay and still get upset if you try to use it!!

If not for Medicaid during Covid I would have had zero coverage for my first major health event which required two years of recovery. I will require lifetime medication that is several hundred out of pocket every month but thanks to my state Medicaid program I qualify for coverage. Thank heaven and I sincerely hope we can catch up with the rest of the developed world and provide this essential service for all Americans as soon as possible.
Im getting evicted 2 years before my retirement, have to move somewhere affordable and quit my good job at a world class university.... and have no healthcare for 2 years potentially... at 63... with long covid and a knee that needs replacing.... Bernie... GET SOMEONE REAL TO RUN
Thank you Mr. Sanders! Awesome American and valiant worker for your interest! 🎉🎉
his interest is working on his legend.... and staying in the good graces with the DNC.... so that he never gets a Democrat running for his seat...
great guy!
what happened to the rainbow party he wanted to lead????
Personally, I feel we should call it Universal Healthcare. There is too much negativity surrounding "Medicare"!!! Thank you Bernie for All that you try to do for us!!! #WeThePeopleAreFedUpWith #TheUnitedCorporationsOfAmerica
Agreed. Or National, not for profit Insurance - which is what it is. Also, drop the "democratic socialist name. It is stupid. Should be called the "Social Democrats." Think Bernie, pls.
#forcethevote
@@fufraskingthey did that on purpose... socialists were the people who had a planned economy, censorship, no democracy, political prisoners ok ok ok u gonna tell me just like in the US, except for the planned economy....
if u tell someone u r a socialist they quickly tell ah ok communist...
soooo AOC and Bernie letting people know they r socialist sounds like they r jamming a stick into their bycicle they're riding down a steep hill....
social democrat is correct... just like social democrats in Germany who ruling that country right now.

Single payer healthcare!
I applaud you for taking on the healthcare system. I hope you find a way to break through the grip of corporate greed.
Down with medical insurance companies and big pharma! Theyve town this country apart, and theyll bleed us dry if given the opportunity.
The (corporate) campaign contributions should be outlawed. NOW.
Medicare for All ❤️🇺🇲
Also, our outcomes fall behind other industrialized countries. For instance, infant and maternal mortality are higher than in the other countries, gun violence is the number one cause of death in children, and mental health problems are higher than in other countries. What do they have that we lack? Universal health care.
Thank you, Bernie. You are so correct on the cost of medical care. Thank you for talking about this and trying to help us get ahead in America. You are doing God's work. 🙏🙏💙💙💙💙🌊🌊🌊🌊
Live Longer in good health and prosper Bernie
Thank you, Bernie, without our health. What do we have?. Medicare for all.🔥💚💙👍🏻👍👍🏽👍🏿
Thanks for staying on it.
Mr. Sanders you are SPOT ON!!! I support your position on this issue!! Thank You.
As a nurse and soon to be nurse practitioner I wholeheartedly support Medicare for All.
Thank you Bernie ❤

Can we give this guy a lifetime achievement award or a nobel prize already for decades of showing backbone and beeing a decent human beeing in a system full of corruption?
Greetings from Germany
That's a fantastic idea!
That wouldn't be enough
Love you Bernie!! I am a retired, disabled RN, and have followed your campaigns and even knocked on doors for you!! Im stuck on a fixed income. Ive given up on western medicine, and refuse to support this system of greed and the oligarchy of big pharma! I could tell you stories!! Mostly i feel strongly that functional medicine should be the first line, in diagnosing the underlying factors causing "dis" ease!! Western medicine is NOT preventative!! Oh how I'd like to help set up a real HEALTH care system with you!!
U.S.A. Uncle Sam's AmeriCare: healthcare where and when you need, Uncle Sam pays the bills - expanded, enhanced MedicareForAll ✌️👍
we would pay the bill with a minor tax increase I assume and the increase wouldnt be necessary

I get treated at the Veterans Administration.
They have their own doctors and hospitals.
Plus I can get treated outside of the VA and the VA pays for that too.
My wife gets cancer treatments from medicare. And during the COVID crisis qualified for medicade. Which is a completely different program with a similar sounding name.
All very good programs.
I feel guilty at times that we have these benefits that others don’t.
Don't feel guilty. You deserve it.
I voted for you twice for president, Bernie. Thank you for your lifetime of hard work for us.
Same here I still have the Bernie shirt's.
Twice here, too. Still have a Bernie poster on my wall right here, retrieved when campaign #2 was over. Totally ready to "go for it" again...right now...when/if the call comes. #NotMeUs.
It is so sad the dnc didn't allow him to be the nominee... he was kicking trumps butt.
💜💜💜💜💜💜
What are the democrats going to do? Not fullifill any of their campaign prommises and expect to win?
Trump is fine compared to Biden.
My fiancee worked as an executive for Geisinger. I dumped her.
This is the reason why I'm so proud that in 2020 New York state for Bernie Sanders any Erie County we need Medicaid or Medicare for for all

For humanity!
I just signed up for Original Medicare and I just don't understand why they don't let people of any age join: it would benefit both younger and older people, and the budget. Thank you Bernie! You have always been the best!
Universal Healthcare and free tuition for up and coming health service professionals!
This Should Have Been Taken Care of Fricken Decades Ago !!!!!!!!!! All of the Tax Dollars that have been Wrongfully Wasted over the Decades which is Really Sad 😢!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ignorance is Bliss !!!!
Love this video showing clearly what we could have and the only reason we don't have it is due to the misinformation and disinformation from those who do not want to give up their huge profits. I would love to see a change in my lifetime towards what other Democratic countries are already enjoying.
Thank you Bernie. We sure do need those healthcare solution
This just makes so much sense and would serve the "common good." You are a good and wise man. Thank-you for all you do.
it's possible we will democratically vote ourselves out of our Democracy...let that sink in...!!
the DNC stole Bernies votes remember?
In Sweden we pay 20$ to see a doctor and get any treatment.
I'm invested Bernie U the man Medicare has always been a saviour in Australia and in fact since Gough wittlam legislated it the economy has been steady from rebates from the government to the medical health proffesion it's a win win
Biden said he'd veto it if it came to his desk, I won't forget that.
Never forget.

Senator Sanders is the youngest-thinking politician in America.❤
I feel so bad for you folks down in the states. I don’t know what I would have done lately without healthcare paid for by our government. It really saved my ass literally ✌🏼❤️🇨🇦
I love Bernie! He fights for all of us!
you said it brother.
This is good
God bless you Bernie
Part of the cost of drugs is that the big pharms have a 15 year drug development horizon. They need that time for all of the dead ends that comes with that kind of research. If our national labs took over that research they'd have no excuses and we the people would own the patents and we could license them to the drug manufacturers.
I'm with you, Bernie. What's it going to take to get it done? It is amazing to me that people aren't jumping up and down to get this through. Big money in insurance companies (greed) keeps people sick and tired!
What's it going to take to get it done? You'd need to about 30 IQ points to each US citizen.
👍👍👍💯%💙
I'm with you Bernie. If anyone can do it, you can!
I need Medicare for all, I have epilepsy and live in Michigan. I drive to Canada to buy my medication. Sometimes if I get the wrong doctor there they treat me like a drug smuggler, I'm not a drug Smuggler
I've lost so much because of my illnesses. We should not exploit people when they're fighting to stay alive.
Corporate greed is destroying our country.
Amazing that after 60 years, this discussion continues to be made. In 1964 as a member of our high school debate team we argued this issue for an entire year. Fortunately, for the past 30+ years living in Europe, I have been living under a dual system of health care for everyone, and if one so desires, they can have private health care as well, just as one has in Canada, too. I have excellent doctors, no complaints about the system, and as a retired person, no financial strain as a result of the cost for health care.
A few years ago I suddenly acquired some allergies, which developed into asthma. While on vacation in Italy, I had a real asthma attack, went to the first aid, was taken care of, use my health card, paid zero for the treatment and about €6 for medication, then continued to enjoy my time at the sea. Health care should be a human right everywhere. Perhaps a proper system will finally arrive in the US.
thank you bernie, you are the last person in government that is for the people...

I love Bernie, such a reasonable and intelligent legislator. Let's multiply Bernie x 100.
Love you Bernie!❤️
Senator Sanders is smarter, healthier, and more compassionate than any of our other political leaders. After I had a major hospital stay with Medicare and an excellent supplement I got billed by doctors who don't take Medicare. The Drs are the ones who ought to screaming to change the system if they expect patients living on a modest fixed income to pay them out of pocket. The thing about welfare not often explained today is the monies going to help the poor used to go into the pockets of the middle class such as doctors, property managers, and small farmers. Now our system is set up for conglomerates to profit directly from government handouts without helping the poorest in our society while ripping off the middle class.
New York State is leading by example! Kudos!
Medicare for all would be such a lifelong game changer! Americans have no idea how we are trapped in an area, a no where job, an abusive relationship etc, etc. They can’t even imagine the FREEDOM that medicare for all!
We The People appreciate you Bernie.
God Bless you Mr. Sanders. Thanks for speaking the truth, for being a kind and gentle human first, and second, a bold advocate for us.
I voted for you! ❤ Thank you for repeating this over and over. Thank you for not giving up the fight!
Thank you Senator Bernie for all you do ❣️
Please, privatized care is destroying all medical care. I pay my premiums & cannot get a specialist when I need one.
Thank you Bernie for all you do
We also need to get American's to focus on their own health. But, leadership doesn't lead by example of talk about it, or tax unhealthy food, like fast food, enough to encourage people to care for themselves. Still, basic national healthcare is needed. Especially mental health.
I believe it will happen and will continue to fight to make it happen. Thank you for all your efforts.
Bernie, don't give up! People need to know how we're being divided to fight AGAINST our common and several interests. If the right really understood the long-term effect ON THEM of what they demand....
Always with you Senator!
Thank you Bernie stay well
Thank you, Bernie, for being the Man for the People💞🙏🕊
Right on Bernie! ❤
