I have been desperately tying to get this posted on Michael Moore's site concerning explaining how M4ALL works. I've paid my $5 to Michael's site, but nothing works! If this somehow reaches you, please pass it on to Michael.

A simple one minute ad for Medicare4ALL that should run 24/7!

Medicare For All is not "free." It's just high quality health care that is dirt cheap!

Okay, I'm listening. But please explain to me exactly HOW is it so much cheaper without sacrificing quality of care?

Easy! Like the insurance companies, Medicare for All uses three main criteria to determine one's monthly premium.

One: How many people are in the insurance pool? The more people contributing funds to the pool, the cheaper the rates. Now imagine a Medicare pool of over 300 million people! The population of the US! Rates are immediately astronomically lower!

Two: Risk: How many people in the insurance pool have health issues such as cancer, heart problems and age related risks? Now imagine a Medicare pool of over 300 million US citizens coast-to-coast, including Alaska and Hawaii! You have now astronomically diluted those small risky insurance company pools into a 50 state-wide Medicare OCEAN, diluting the risk factor astronomically and lowering rates dramatically a second time!

Three: Insurance companies are a business. They have to show a profit! And that is why they promise their customers the moon, and then try every way they can to deny coverage because insurance company coverage costs negatively affect shareholder profits. Now imagine a government run Medicare system, that is NOT a business but a SERVICE! No need to make a profit or report to share holders every quarter. You have now lowered monthly rates a third and equally dramatic time!

The taxes that will pay for it will be astronomically lower than insurance company premiums and based on individual income. Just as seniors 65 and older have enjoyed for decades!

EVERY US citizen will be covered from FETUS to GRAVE, without fear of ever losing their health care for ANY reason!

Lost your job? You're covered. Going to college? You're covered. Starting a business? You're covered. You have employees? They're covered! No need for you to cover them. Sick? You're covered. Poor? You're covered.

RICH? You're covered TOO and at the same low rates as everyone else! There is no "condition" that will ever keep anyone from getting quality easily affordable health care forever!

Young people are now already paying into Medicare benefits they won't currently receive until they're 65! Why not get it NOW!
