Did Bernie Sanders get Republican employers to agree with Medicare for All? (VIDEO)


Senator Bernie Sanders likely gave Republicans attempting to overturn the Affordable Care Act, Obamacare heartburn during a recent full committee hearing of the US Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, & Pension. It turns out that all three witnesses saw merit to Senator Bernie Sanders’ desire for true Universal Healthcare decoupled from the employer. The panel included Dr. Betsy Webb , Superintendent, Bangor School Department, Bangor, ME, Mr. Andrew F. Puzder , Chief Executive Officer, CKE Restaurants, Carpinteria, CA, and Mr. Joe Fugere , Founder, Tutta Bella Pizzeria, Seattle, WA.

The system of bribery we call elections will never allow it. In the meanwhile millions suffer and die for no good reason other than greed. Never expect Republicans to abandon their greedy ways.

Any time there is an internet discussion on single payer heath care an alert goes up and the discussion is invaded by paid sockpuppets. I have watched this since my first days on the internet. It never fails.

This discussion will probably remain too small to warrant the intrusion of paid misinformationists.
