ELECTION 2020

[cannongal]

wOw that's great! now I can keep all my paycheck! Maybe the government can take over the auto company's and make an electric car that everyone could use.

  I can get behind aiming for a government system which aims to:  make health care and necessary prescription drugs available to all, ensure that all young Americans have access to quality public education, promote a more fair economic outcome for people in the lower and middle income brackets, protect clean water and inhabitable land for young people and future generations, etc...   

You don't have to get behind those goals and/or support Bernie Sanders' plans to make them happen, of course.  No one's trying to convince you that you should.  We're just discussing what's been put on the table in terms of the 2020 election.

Yeah, but at what cost?

Bernie's health care for all plan concerns me greatly.  Some people have compared and likened it to Canada's universal health care.   Did you hear about the dude in Winnipeg that waited in the ER 6 days for surgery?  (Story here:  https://winnipeg.ctvnews.ca/winnipeg-man...-1.4742630 ) .  Friends in Canada tell me this is the norm, not the exception.   Spending 6 days in the ER with a broken arm, while being dosed with pain killers isn't my idea of a good time.  :(
