Before you get all warm and fuzzy, remember this. Anyone on the planet will be eligible to receive Harris’ “healthcare”. So, what do you think your wait time is going to be to see a doctor. Two, Three years? What do you think your deductible is going to be?

That wait time could be infinite. Rahm’s brother Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel was one of the driving forces behind Obamacare. He proposed a drop-dead age of 75. Once you hit that age, no more medical care for you. (But don’t worry, elites. You’ll find ways to exempt yourselves from that.)
Sarah Palin was right. To make socialized medicine work, you’ll need death panels for the common folk.
Medicare has been going broke since 2008 when expenditures exceeded revenue. The Medicare Trust fund will be exhausted by 2026. By law, benefits must be reduced to match revenue received.
40% of Medicare expenditures come from the General Fund. The premiums for Medicare Part B only cover, by law, 25% of the costs. The rest comes from the GF.
90% of Medicare recipients have private, supplemental insurance, i.e., Medigap insurance.
