Avik Roy: What Bernie Sanders Is Advocating for Is If You Like Your Health Care Plan, ‘Tough Luck’

EXCERPT:

ROY: “Let’s talk about three things that Bernie was talking about yesterday. First of all, he announced it would be a government-run healthcare system that would actually save us money. What do you say about that?"
ROY: "Well, you know, the government already spends in America $1.5 trillion a year subsidizing healthcare. So it’s not that we don’t have a government funded system. What Bernie is advocating for is if you like your plan, tough luck, 180 million people with employer based insurance, with individually purchased insurance, the 22 million with Medicare advantage they're not going to have that coverage anymore, it's going to be replaced by something that Bernie likes that you may not."
