Senate Going Postal: The 2020 U.S. Presidential Election

Exactly, indeed I would never copy and paste a post of yours, if I disagree, and mock it on facebook.

 

I'm not mocking these people lol, I'm showing people here what we have to work against.

 

Not fond of the "painting all liberals with the same brush" (or substitute any other group for "liberals"). Over-generalizing is not a good tactic.

 

lol funny how that only gets mentioned when it's centrists looking bad.

there are people who are literally trying to make not helping others sound woke but vivec's the villain here

 

nope, over-generalizing again. I have spoken up against other posts in the past when I've felt it necessary.

 

uh huh we'll see

liberals still suck regardless

 

You are not the villain. You are just showing us tweets nobody cares about. No big deal.

 

It's a quick and easy way to get a dunk on the libs.

this is actually the most hurtful thing that's been said to me all thread

 

I just don't see the value in picking out random dumbasses on Twitter. They don't have any more public influence than we do. Their individual opinions are nothing. It's not like a billionaire talking head on MSNBC with millions of viewers seeing her declare those who support Sanders over Warren "sexist." That's more of the sort of thing we have to work against.

 

Elizabeth Warren plans to release her Medicare for all plan. More specifically, how she will pay for Bernie’s plan without raising costs on the middle class. So unlike Harris, not changing Bernie’s plan, but finding a way to address costs. I’m curious to see what that will look like. I still don’t see how taxes don’t go up, but if she and her team has found a way that reduces that’s tax amount further than Bernie, that would be something and would definitely hurt something like Pete’s Medicare for all who want it and Biden’s “if it’s barely working, let’s keep it!”

And bonus as it could help Bernie too. We shall see.

 

Given her waffling on the issue I would be shocked, SHOCKED if it were a watered-down version.

 

So, of the various plans, I still think Harris' (?) plan is the one I like the most (unless she's changed it again, which is always possible). I think this is where everyone is?

Medicare-for-All, no private insurance: Bernie, Warren (and Gabbard?)
Medicare-for-All, plus allowance for secondary private insurance: Harris
Medicare-for-All-Who-Want-It; ACA with a public option: Buttigieg, Klobuchar
ACA with expanded access, without a public Medicare option: Biden
ACA "as is" - Steyer (?)

I can't recall where Castro and Booker are -- but I think Booker is in the Harris or Pete/Amy lane and Castro may be full M4A? Yang probably wants robot doctors.

 

Gabbard has backtracked to talking about "choice." Go figure.

 

That's just what Putin wants you to think!

 

This is really the power of Warren. When it comes to build up a policy proposal, understand it deeply and explain it in a clear way, she can basically out-smart anybody else. Whatever her plan will be, I'm confident that it's going to be solid.

 

I think it's only a matter of time before Hillary takes a shot at Bernie. When it happens, I just hope she gets all the scorn she deserves. She's not helping her party by going after Tulsi, especially not in the manner she chose. I don't think she cares though. I'm worried she would rather let the party disintegrate and lose to Trump again than let it move on from her. If she's waiting for the candidates to praise her, thank her for her legacy and say she deserves respect than she is delusional. I don't think any of them would even accept her endorsement if it was offered, it would do more harm than good.

The next time she has an interview, they need to ask her who invited Ghislaine Maxwell to Chelsea's wedding.

 

Castro is close to Harris, actually. M4A, but allow private insurance for the above and beyond stuff.

You know. What the best countries in the world wrt medical coverage do.

 

Harris doesn't have a position. She's waffled back and forth a couple times now between Bernie's position and Medicare for all who want it. How can anyone trust that she will even support m4a a month from now?

 

I mean, it's pretty clearly laid out here: https://kamalaharris.org/healthcare/

Same as everyone else who has a plan (on their website). You may think she'll change it, but it's written down.

The only thing different from her plan from when I initially heard it is that there's no mention of private insurance post-Medicare phase in (hers is 10 years), which is specifically what I'm looking for. /shrug

 

As we all know, when someone running for president has a policy written down on their website, it's basically a magical contract that forces them to keep with that policy. We definitely should not be using things like their behavior during the campaign trail or debates or anything like that to decide whether we trust them to keep to it.

 

At the end of the ten-year transition, every American will be a part of this new Medicare system. They will get insurance either through the new public Medicare plan or a Medicare plan offered by a private insurer within that system. Seniors will see stronger Medicare benefits than they have now. We will cover millions more people who don’t have health insurance today. And we will reduce costs, save our country money, and ensure that no American has to sacrifice getting the care they need just because the cost is a barrier.

Her plan expands Medicare Advantage.

 

heh, I read it twice as "Nat Turner"
