1/ Let's do math. @BernieSanders M4A.

Salary: $48K/yr

Medical, Dental, Vision = $81.29 x 24 =$1,950.96/yr
Medicare: $28.58 x 24=$685.92/yr
Plus deductible + copays

#MedicareForAll
Medical, Dental, Vision =$0
M4A tax: $48K - $29K =$19K x.04 =$760/yr
Zero deductible + copays https://twitter.com/amjoyshow/status/1193193164884103169
2/ Under #MedicareForAll from your check you'll SAVE: $1,190.96/yr for health care.

PLUS you'll no longer pay out of pocket deductibles like $4K/yr + copays like $15/visit.

Old health plan requires in-network use. Under M4A, you can choose ANY doctor or hospital.
3/ Under #MedicareForAll you also get:

🔹Out of pocket cost for drugs capped at $200/yr
🔹Dental, vision, hearing aids
🔹Ambulance
🔹Women's health + maternity, pediatric
🔹Mental health + substance abuse care
🔹In-home + long term care
4/ Difference between Bernie and Warren's #MedicareForAll finance plans in what you pay:
Bernie M4A = $760/yr
Warren Medicare = $685.92/yr

That's a $74.08/ yr difference. SMALL.

BUT in Warren's plan, employers with 50+ employees will pay $9,500/head tax. Bernie is payroll tax.
