People don’t understand Medicare. Or Medicare for all.
The do understand the concepts of access and affordability.
Just saying.

This is true. There are material differences between the right to legal counsel and “access to affordable legal services.”
The perfect example of the ignorance of Americans is the huge number of times at GOP events that rank and file people would say, "Socialized medicine is for commies."
Then they would say, "Don't touch my Medicare."

I don’t care what slogans are used.
As long as they are reasonably honest and help make things better.

Oh, and we need to work on understanding the many reasons why so many can’t manage an unexpected expense of 400 dollars.
And figure out ways to lower the number of such folks.
And what slogan would or wouldn’t help.

True. But Medicare is popular and the people who use it like it.

What’s the top line fore healthcare access is it access to life saving procedures? Is it access to all procedures, all medicine no matter the cost? Is there ever a limit? I mean I could keep grandma “alive” for a year with no chance she’s ever coming back at an enormous cost. Is there a sliding scale where certain things drop off because of age?

Yeah, it’s complicated.
We’ll never get it all right.
But we should be able to do a lot better.

And I actually just learned from RJ that health care is NEVER free, its just paid for with tax dollars! Crazy right? Learn something new every day.

"hog" lol, look who believes in zero-sum economics now! All these old people taking all the healthcare! Save some for the rest of us you old fucks!
I would say you have spent more on healthcare in the past year than I have in the past 35 years. Stop hogging it!
I thought you were supposed to be a socialist and take care of everyone.

I disagree with you
i mean, when a 35 yr old can't get an appointment at my primary care physician because there are 50 old fucks there every day because their medicare is free, that's definitely a problem

So this debate has arrived at the point where the noted "Democrat" is complaining that middle aged people are over utilizing medicare because its free. The "problem" with our health care system that you're choosing to point out, is that old people have too much of it. Got it.
Ph, if you're reading this, come get your progressive neighbor.

people who are on medicare are not middle-aged. #facts
