Troy Jackson: We Ought to Phase Out Private Plans in Favor of Medicare-for-All

EXCERPT:

JACKSON: “Right. Yeah, I mean, that’s what we have seen here in Maine too. Whenever we have tried to do this, is like, everyone has to get into the plan. I mean, I think the controversy over this is that the healthcare industry, big pharma has made people feel like they’re not going to get as good a coverage, you will be getting something less than. But I actually see a scenario where this is going to be great coverage. You will have eye, ear, dental, you know, you won’t have to pay the obscene co-pays and things like that.”
