If I’m taxed more to pay for Medicaid For All, what will I get that I don’t currently get through insurance my employer currently pays for?

Single payer health insurance typically require longer waits per appointment, longer waits to obtain treatment and less choice regarding doctors you can choose. As you mentioned, you will pay higher taxes to receive these changes.

  They do not require longer waits for doctor visits. The only thing that might have a longer wait is non critical surgery. Ask the people of Canada or the UK if they would give up single payer in favor of private insurance. Go ahead, ask them!

Answer 3

First its medicare not medicaid. The goveremnent has stayed out of it. Only to have people go bankrupt when they get sick. To answer your question. Your employer would offer a supplemental policy . You would then have 100 percent coverage. Instead of 80/20. Employer might charge a little like 50 a month for a family

Answer 4

A bill form the parasites for their health care. Oh wait, you already get that if you work for a living, don't you?

Answer 8

If individuals and companies were made to pay taxes, you wouldn’t need to be taxed more for Medicare for all. What you would get if it were comparable to some other countries would be the ability to see a doctor whenever you really needed. I pay fir healthcare through my employer , it’s not free. They also don’t pay completely for anything I may need. I also have deductibles. My family in Europe have none of these. Everything is paid for 200%. You also don’t have doctors trumping up things to make you pay for that you don’t need. You also have reasonable costs for medicine. None of that has come from private insurance companies who have people there who make money by denying claims. I could go in but I think those are enough reasons to get rid of companies who let people die by not covering their expenses. No one goes bankrupt by paying hospital bills there, oh wait I said I was done. 😉

Answer 11

The proposals on the table are for Medicare for all, not Medicaid. How can I be expected to believe you would understand my answer when you have already proven yourself a moron.

  Is calling people "morons" a good strategy, for getting your point across? I really don't think so, although I may be wrong. I think it's better to point out the flaws in the other person's argument without insulting anyone. It might be easier to accept among people who disagree with you.
