Joe Biden's healthcare plan:
– 10 million uninsured
– Uninsurance kills 15,000 yearly
– Medical bankruptcies are rampant
– Millions frustratedly fight insurers for needed care
– Your pay is siphoned to insurer/pharma/hospital profits
We need #MedicareForAll. #DoctorsForBernie
BidenCare *increases* costs.
BidenCare:
– Fails to negotiate with pharma
– Creates expensive (and frustrating!) bureaucracy for insurance enrollment and billing
– Gives corporate welfare of your taxpayer money to insurers
#MedicareForAll saves money.
How is BidenCare give corporate welfare?
1) Basically, existing insurers see that they can save money by jettisoning sick patients.
2) They will build all kinds of frustration points.
3) These sick people will go on BidenCare...
...
4) BidenCare costs will balloon from having the sickest.
5) Taxpayers will foot the bill for the sickest (more taxes).
6) Meanwhile insurers will refuse to reduce prices even after jettisoning their most expensive patients. More profits!
So BidenCare basically creates another situation of "patient dumping."
Bottomline: by distorting incentives in the market for healthcare, Biden wants our tax dollars to line the pockets of insurer CEO and stockholder.
Ok, that's overall costs. Systems costs. National costs.
What about for people who "choose" the public option?
It's *really* expensive.
In what world is this "affordable" healthcare?
