President Trump attacked Democratic healthcare proposals in direct terms in his third State of the Union address, denouncing them as socialist.
"We will never let socialism destroy American healthcare," Trump said in his address Tuesday night.
Trump is running against Democrats who propose "Medicare for all" plans, including Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, which would enroll everyone in the United States in a government healthcare plan. Trump, vulnerable on the issue of healthcare otherwise, has sought to cast himself as the defender of the status quo against such overhauls.

destroy American healthcare? What part of a system that allows drug companies to raise prices of life saving insulin beyond the grasp of working Americans do you want to save? I'm sure people said similar things about medicare and look where we are now. What these politicians are really saying is "we will not let socialized medicine destroy the profits of the pharmaceutical and insurance industries because they finance all our campaigns"

ReplyDeleteJust ask a Canadian. P. S. They do pay for medical insurance and because it 8s socialized also the wait time to see a doctor 8s usually 3 to 6 months. Now - do we want Medicare for all.
