Elizabeth Warren keeps lying through her teeth about 'Medicare for all' washex.am/2LPDSsB
Seeing as "Medicare for all" would cost at least $32.6 trillion — and that's generously assuming that it could continue to pay an average reimbursement rate 40% lower than that of current private health insurance rates that subsidize public plans —
Warren's insistence that her plan would only raise taxes on billionaires and corporations seems to be an overt lie.
Warren's primary mechanism for paying for her socialist wish list is her likely-unconstitutional wealth tax, which her own advisers estimate would raise only $2.75 trillion in a decade, or roughly 8% of "Medicare for all."
Her wealth tax, if the Supreme Court allowed it to go into effect, would penalize households with assets valued at more than $50 million.
