Sanders: ‘ObamaCare Has Serious Problems’

EXCERPT:

SANDERS: Well, Dana -- Dana, let me just begin by saying this. 

The bill that was defeated should have been defeated. It was a disastrous piece of legislation primarily designed to provide $300 billion in tax breaks to the top 2 percent, throwing 24 million people off of health insurance, raising premiums for older workers in a very, very significant way. 

It was defeated. The American people wanted it defeated. And I'm glad that we were able to accomplish that. 

Now, as you indicated, of course, Obamacare has serious problems. Deductibles are too high. Premiums are too high. The cost of health care is going up at a much faster rate than it should. Ideally, what -- where we should be going is to join the rest of the industrialized the world and guarantee health care to all people as a right.
