Medicare for All benefits and how to finance

Forewarning: Please take my comment as just one opinion.

I have worked shitty jobs. You can consider me a poor person. I was excited about Obamacare -- I thought it was an inexpensive way to get health insurance. So I got Obamacare. I wasn't sick, but I decided to go see the doctor for a general check up -- because I got Obamacare. So I went to the doctor. I got a check up. The doctor told me that nothing is physically wrong with me but that she recommends I see a therapist. Anyways, before I left that doctor, the front desk woman told me the cost of m visit was $407 dollars (I think it was more but I'm trying to be generous).

The point I'm trying to make is that even with Obamacare, the cost of seeing a doctor -- not even for a real emergency -- cost so much money that I don't have. I just can't afford Obamacare. You might call that being poor, but the truth is, I'm not the only one with this experience. There is hundreds of thousands, possibly millions, that feel the same way.

Anyway, thanks for reading my feelings. Have a great year Majority Report!
