Bernie May Want To Rethink His Government Run Healthcare

Bernie May Want To Rethink His Government Run Healthcare
Bernie Sanders and the Democrats want a Medicare for all healthcare plan that would cover all Americans. Just follow the history of the Veterans Affair Hospitals and you'll understand why the idea of a Single Payer healthcare system should scare the hell out of America.

Bernie Sanders believes standing in opposition to his Medicare for all plan is what he calls the “most powerful and greedy forces in American society”: the pharmaceutical industry, insurance companies, Wall Street and the Republican party. But, that's a lie. The thing that stands in opposition is history.

The history of the VA hospital. If the Government can't take care of a few thousand people. Who in their right mind believes it can take care of 323 Million people?

As a disabled veteran who has gotten all of my medical care at the VA for the past 15 years, this doesn't surprise me at all. The VA medical system is a disgrace.

Need to respond...In my 30 years supporting Military Health Care, I have worked side-by side with some of the best MDs, DOs, NPs & PAs one can imagine. I will admit there are a few that I wouldn't even let care for my cat...

Glad you've fared better than I have. The shit the VA gets away with by shuffling doctors around is despicable
I was misdiagnosed for 6 years w/bursitis . When I finally got a Dr. to approve surgery During the surgery to rebuild the ball and socket I went into cardiac arrest.

Until every member of Congress gets their healthcare at the VA, no veteran should be forced to choose this as their healthcare provider.

Are any of these revoked workers involved in what led to the outbreak of legionaries diseases in Illinois VA care facilities? Outrageous incompetence in the Illinois VA care facilities has led to the deaths of veterans.

That is so pathetic..the health of our veterans has no meaning..once they are done serving they have no self worth, be treated by unfit healthcare providers..they got their licenses revoked for a reason, I am p’d off at this news.

I totally blame the VA system for my brother's death at 58

Socialized medicine is going to be great.

And Democrats think the government could run healthcare for the entire country. LOL

First is was government run schools that lowered standards in education, now we see another facet of government run healthcare that continues to do so with more immediately detrimental results.

Government is not the answer.

My dad had a quadruple bypass at Los Angeles VA. Within 3 months he had a major heart attack from 90% blockage they’d failed to address. He survived w some brain damage, so they drugged him senseless left him restrained him in a tray-table wheelchair until he lost ability to walk

Attention Obamacare fans:
This is single payer.

Healthcare is why I started on Twitter. I've had problems with VA and pay to go to Mayo Clinic rather than what would be free care at the VA.

Obama care needs to go away.

A service connected vet should be able to choose any hospital, not forced to one.

Socialized medicine at it's finest. Another reason I am glad I do not use the @DeptVetAffairs. Lack luster care, and I DARE my veteran brothers and sisters, to look up online reviews of their docs. I did, n never looked back. Absolutely shameful.

— Mr. E (@SlayerActual) December 22, 2017

It is going to so great for all of us when @SenSanders recommends a VA healthcare system for all.

Wake up, folks - this is what govt-run healthcare looks like.
