One thought on “The force behind the local ‘Medicare for All’ movement”
As a thankful recipient of Medicare, I fully support Medicare for all. I was fortunate to have decent healthcare while employed. But the nightmare included pretending my daughter was a full time student so she could remain on my family plan when she drive out. Also when I was laid off at 64. I was able to utilize COBRA until that ended and I was eligible for Medicare but my wife was not. So we purchased a single polish on her which covered zilch, until she was eligible. Our part C and D premiums keep raising but at least we can pay for them. Forgive Medical Debt!
