Sanders releases universal health care plan ahead of debate
Bernie Sanders is proposing a “Medicare for all” health care plan with a proposal on how to fund it.
According to Sanders’ plan, individuals would pay a 2.2 percent “premium” and employers would pay a 6.2 percent payroll tax to fund the healthcare plan. Individuals making $250,000 to $500,000 a year would pay a tax rate of 37 percent and those making more than $10 million would pay a 52 percent tax rate.

Until the Democrats have a veto proof majority in Congress, universal health care will never happen.

So true, however the more it is mentioned and talked about, the more people have problems with the existing insurance run program the more people (Republicans as well ) will look for a solution, a different approach.
