.@laurapdavison misleads readers about #MedicareForAll by cherry-picking one conservative study & misrepresenting @SenSanders #M4A plan. Please issue a correction @business @maryad5 @TimothyBLavin @fdwilkinson. 1/5

While federal spending would increase under Medicare-for-All, studies show that most households and employers will enjoy a savings. This is continually overlooked or ignored by the media. 2/5 
The additional federal revenue for Medicare-for-All would come from a variety of progressive taxes, not an equal flat amount from each person and not solely by taxing the wealthy. 3/5
It's important to understand how federal spending & taxes work in order to understand why the U.S. can afford Medicare-for-All. 4/5
Davison relies heavily on 3 sources biased against Medicare-for-All: @BudgetHawks, Charles Blahous, & @mercatus. Given their histories and financial ties, they cannot be trusted to deliver unbiased information about #SinglePayer healthcare. 5/5
