Didn't you just hear Cruz say that even a 100% tax wouldn't pay for it? Do you think Cruz is lying and using fake numbers to get to that answer? He's not the only one who has done that math you know, Hillary came up with the exact same answer.

I'm starting to see why Bernie is so popular, people really believe this guy can perform miracles or something.

I'm biased as gently caress, as are most goons who post here, but I think Sanders got the best of that debate. It wasn't a slaughter, though. Ted Cruz is a skilled debater, whether we want to admit it or not. Still, Sanders came off as more personable, and he was greatly aided by the questioners, many of whom shared stories about how they personally benefited from Obamacare.

Ted Cruz: "America has twice the money of those other countries that have universal health care! America would never be able to afford universal health care!"

Because Hillary says the exact same thing. Former Sec of State Hillary Clinton the actual candidate, not Crooked Hillary the Trump character, agrees with Ted Cruz on this point.

We've been the best team all year.

They're just finding out.
Cruz did a good job explaining why Obamacare is poo poo from a conservative perspective. He did a poo poo job of explaining why repeal rather than a fix is the path forward.

Bernie did well because he accepted the areas where Obamacare is poo poo, and talked about how it can be fixed and where we should ultimately go. He actually had a vision for the future, Cruz did not.

The notion that USA cannot "afford" universal healthcare while most other first world countries do while simultaneously being poorer in every metric than the US is ludicrous.

So ludicrous, that people from the rest of the world viewing this debate are laughing their asses off. And simultaneously weeping for the average American.

Let that sink in for a minute.
