SandersCare thrives while TrumpCare dies

09/29/17 12:20 PM EDT

Excerpts:

We are ending an astounding week in an astounding month that leaves Trump heading toward a failed presidency, and leaving Sanders advancing what will someday become a program that goes down in history alongside the creation of Social Security and Medicare.

SandersCare begins with the public option and reaches its ultimate plateau with the establishment of a “Medicare for all” system. SandersCare is based on a simple and powerful vision, that every single American, without one single exception, should have the choice of paying lower premiums and receiving quality healthcare bought from an insurance seller that is not 100 percent motivated by private profit at the customer’s expense.

While TrumpCare in all its forms would lead to millions of Americans losing their insurance, SandersCare in all its forms creates the possibility that, for the first time in American history, 100 percent of Americans could someday be insured because they would have the choice of buying policies from a seller motivated by improving their healthcare, and only improving their healthcare, 100 percent of the time.

While TrumpCare is politically dead and buried, SandersCare is the wave of the future, which is good news for every American who cares about their health.
