Ask your candidate if 'Medicare for more' right for you

2. Most Americans don't like their current insurance, IMO.

Pay hundreds of dollars a month for insurance which pays nothing for the first $3000 in expenses. Where an incidental 'out of network' anesthesiologist and surgeon can't bankrupt you. Where you lose your insurance if you lose your job. Where insurance companies fight tooth and nail against paying any claim with the slightest pretext. Where you pay extra to cover sales commissions and kickbacks to insurance companies from drug companies.

I'm certainly not opposed to 'Medicare for more'. In fact, I agree it might be easier to get into place. And I think Bernie Sanders would agree. It's better than Obamacare or even a public option in Obamacare. Allow anyone over 60 to sign up. I'm 60. I'd jump at the chance to get off my company sponsored plan. And it would be nice to be able to retire early without paying the outrageous premiums Obamacare policies charge for older people.
