it will be terrific and cover everybody. How does he propose doing that?

I don't know about him, but I'd propose privatizing Medicaid, with mandated premiums based on means testing. Premium subsidy would range from 100 to 0%. Require copays of all recipients.

Allow healthy individual insurance premiums to be below that of unsubsidized Medicaid premium.

I agree with this. I believe many European countries have a mix of public and private health care; it reduces the burden on the public system.

And even a small co-pay stops many people from going to the emergency room when they have a cold.
