Posted by M. C. on October 23, 2018

The only thing that socialist healthcare can do is shift jobs in a distorted manner that will result in greater inefficiencies in the jobs market and in healthcare.

Medicare for All is a bill on the floor of Congress.
It means:
✅ Single-payer healthcare
✅ Physical, mental, & dental coverage
✅ Payment-free at the point of service, so we don’t delay care for large cash payments
✅ A jobs program to transition + expand healthcare work

Medicare-for-all is increasingly popular — but it turns out, candidates often mean wildly different things when deploying the phrase. @RosenthalHealth and I went long in the @nytimes about why this mattershttps://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/19/opinion/sunday/medicare-single-payer-health-care.html?action=click&module=Opinion&pgtype=Homepage 

Which means she is as dumb as Trump when it comes to jobs.

Markets clear, including the jobs market. No “jobs programs” are required.
