Bernie at the debate

I'm looking forward to seeing all of tonight's Democratic debate, but here is just a part in which Bernie Sanders defends the idea of Medicare for all ...



I am for the idea of Medicare for all. Some are worried that taking away private health insurance from those who like it will be unpopular. I'm sure it will be. But we in the US have to get over our Puritan work-ethic heritage and stop thinking about health care as a kind of reward for having a good job (or being lucky enough to be wealthy). As Bernie says, health care should be a right for everyone. It is that in almost every other country in the world.
