Javes posted:That $32T is absurdly nonsensical. $32T over 10 years is what we pay now, he is making a case for single payer without realizing it.l I believe the source of the figure is that it would "raise government spending" by that much. So you can't credit existing medicaid/medicare/obamacare spending to that number: it would be $32t on top of that. However, a good chunk of that is, as people correctly assume, everyone else's spending on heath care that would be shifted to the federal government. However, there would still be a considerable net increase in health care spending overall by about $6.6 trillion over the same time period (2017-2026) as the $32t number. I'm pretty sure the $32 trillion source is this: http://www.urban.org/sites/default/files/alfresco/publication-pdfs/2000785-The-Sanders-Single-Payer-Health-Care-Plan.pdf So, $6.6t of new spending, ~$25.4t of redirected spending (state, local, personal) that is now paid for by the federal government.

mastajake posted:You can bet your rear end if Dems had stolen an SC seat like Reps did (lol), they would make a point of saying "The Illegitimate Neil Gorsuch" as much as possible instead of "The Honorable Neil Gorsuch." Decorum and faith in the system is going to keep loving us over, isn't it? As has been stated a lot over the last 6 months (jesus gently caress its only been 6 god drat months), institutions that have been the bubble gum and duct tape holding the United States together will not save this "democracy". We are very quickly heading down the complete backslide of a stable democracy and there is not much of anything that is going to stop it. By the time the population recognizes they have lost their system of government forever the use of violence to push it back will be too late. Vox had a pretty good quick introduction to democratic backsliding https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pF-Tdsvk0tI. Reading up more on the previous and current examples is a good eye-opener.

Actually that's precisely what the study said. It makes a basic amount of sense: the basic moral problem with healthcare in America is that about 25 million people don't have it at all. Giving those 25 million people healthcare costs money. Sure, there are savings elsewhere, but the care for that 25 million isn't free.
