[QUOTE="badsporh, post: 4302135, member: 9407"] Medicare for all is about finally having freedom to live our lives not having to worry about losing our right to healthcare just for exercising our first amendment rights. UPS often fires union troublemakers or production problems knowing that it most likely won't stick. But what they also know is that during the time they're fired, they will lose their healthcare, at least temporarily. This is a tremendous axe to wield over employees. Healthcare being tied to employment also inhibits our ability to strike. Which inhibits our ability to secure the best contracts for the rank and file. If Medicare for all is instituted, the monies in our compensation package that goes towards paying for our current company or union provided healthcare, will instead appear in our paycheck. I'll take that please. Added side benefit, you will never have to hear of a loved one, family member, or a friend putting off needed healthcare because they simply can't afford it. That'd sure be nice. [/QUOTE]
