Bernie Sanders’ ‘Medicare for all’ bill estimated to cost $32.6T, new study says

FOX: The “Medicare for All” plan pushed by Sen. Bernie Sanders and endorsed by a host of Democratic congressional and presidential hopefuls would increase government health care spending by $32.6 trillion over 10 years, according to a new study.

The Vermont senator has avoided conducting his own cost analysis, and those supporting the plan have at times struggled to explain how they could pay for it.

The study, released Monday by the Mercatus Center at George Mason University, showed the plan would require historic tax increases.

The hikes would allow the government to replace what employers and consumers currently pay for health care — delivering significant savings on administration and drug costs, but increased demand for care that would drive up spending, according to the report.  more here

  2. And forget cost which we all know is always far higher than predicted, the only way to do anything like this is to limit patient care a la death panels. Why you have so many UK babies being refused treatment. Every person is not going to get a luxury health package instead everyone will be fighting to stay alive and those wealthy enough will be seeking treatment at resorts in other countries.
