medicare for some. so democrats don't care. the country should know that. democrats do not care about the debt. but here is the problem. the only opposition party we have in the country is the republican party, and they don't care either. they just come home and they are dishonest and they tell you they care and they vote for a monstrosity. today's vote will be a vote for a monstrosity, an abomination. the ability to borrow money for over two years until guess what intervenes. why are we going to wait two years with no limits on borrowing? there is this little thing called an election. dhoant want to be in public voting to raise the debt ceiling an unlimited amount or a vast amount again, so they are putting it off to beyond the election. both parties are complicit, though. nobody wants to vote on this again. people talk about draining the swamp. you can't drain the swamp unless you are willing to cut the size and scope of government. that is the swamp. the swamp is this morass that is millions of peopl

for medicare for all. and that is the attempt that the democrats are putting forth in spite of the failures of obamacare. the democratic party's going to double down and push for medicare for all at a cost of some $32 trillion. it would totally eliminate employer-sponsored medical coverage, medicare, medicaid. all of it gone. -- all of it, gone. let me ask you, what would -- what can we expect from a government single payor health system? -- single-payer health system? >> you can certainly expect rationing of services. that's what we've seen in many other countries that have gone this way. many politicians have said those are models we want to look for, we want to look toward to emulate. my experience with being in those countries and working with patients -- i'll give you a specific example. my wife and i were on medical missions in costa rica, that has a single payor. the wife of the pastor we were with was diagnosed with cervical cancer. she was approved for surgery, but she had to have an ultra sound f

i did not raise my hand in support for medicare for all. i'm not talking about medicare for all. why do we keep coming back to medicare for all? this is supposed to be about the affordable care act. >> thank you. mr. balat, let me ask you, was it not true that in 2013, if you if you like your health care plan you can keep your health care plan? >> that's correct. >> and millions were kicked off because it provided. while many gained coverage, 6 million people lost the coverage they had before obamacare, correct? >> that's correct. >> 2.4 were transready. 600,000. from nongroup to uninsured. of those who gained coverage, of the 20 odd million, was that about half and half medicaid and through aca? >> it was more on the medicaid expansion. >> is it not true that is crowding out people who are the original purpose for medicaid was those who were the most vulnerable. we're now crowding out people. there are studies saying in illinois, in 2016, a study shows 762 people died while on a waiting list because they were trying to get care because medicaid was getting crowded out by healthi

the medicare for all camp. pure medicare for all. you've got on the other end the biden which is mend it, don't end it, make some changes and fix it. and a bunch of people in the middle of which kamala harris is the most visible, trying to weave their way through this and have some version of medicare for all but you don't have to give up your private insurance. and to the average american it was probably unbelievably confusing. i think at the end of the day, the big winners from last night were actually warren and sanders because i don't think anybody last night really had a breakthrough moment. i think biden did okay. i think kamala harris was a bit unsteady. michael bennet was great but whether that matters not, we'll find out. for the rest of them it was a lot of this back and forth and so on. what scares me in a way as a centrist democrat is we're still in a situation where bernie sanders and elizabeth warren really stand out over the two nights for having strong positions that no one was able to take down. >> and joe biden's ar

ultimately, over the course of ten years, medicare prices, medicare benefits will set the framework, and every worker, whether they work in a gig economy job for themselves, whether they are a mom and pop operator or whether they work for a large company will have a package of benefits very similar, and medicare will set the prices. that's the really best news i think for everybody. right now a lot of people in private insurance plans are paying well more than medicare prices for days in the hospital, for drug costs, for a variety of services. so, setting prices by the federal government, which has the largest leverage of anybody in the health care field will be really good news for millions of americans. >> so if my private health insurance company decides not to abide by the rules or doesn't want to abide by the rules that the government sets, then that means that's going to go away, and i won't necessarily have that option anymore if i want that private insurance company through my company, through my employer? >> that's right. it's, again, the way medicare operates today, if you'

you traveled your medicare staff , your medicare staff in added services including oncology, quality assurance unit, is that right? >> correct. >> and medicaid money helps. >> absolutely. >> and all of these improvements, patient outcomes have improved. >> they will be able to take it out at home. >> and readmission rates have improved . >> you said that hospital revenues also quadruple during this time, it looks like the improvement in services that medicaid made possible to make the hospital more financially viable, is that true western mark. >> it is true. >> to summarize, the obamacare congress provided you, many hospitals stayed open and you keep your certification expand services, improve patient outcomes and have your bottom line. >> my last and second, latest piece, the six questions you have, i would really like for you to respond in writing to the committee. it's going to be part of the hearing record. it is critical that we have to that as completely and as correct as possible. thank you, my time is up. this time i like to yield to my colleague, directing member miss gonza

do you support medicare for all? and vice-president supports on top of the president obama's health care law. and if you're the democratic nominee how do you fight the argument from the right? >> on medicare for all? it's easy. so, back to the first thing i told you about me, i'm different than most candidates that are running for president right now, because i have a sensibility and an understanding about how people who live in these rural red places, who are republicans see the world. i hate to admit this fact, but i have uncles who voted for trump. anyway, so i know, i know what's going on in their minds. so when i ran for congress in 2005, i actually ran on medicare for all and let me tell you how i got there. when i was travelling around my congressional district, this is pre obamacare. people were being dropped their coverage because of pre-existing conditions. their insurance company kept charging too much money, co-pays too high, deductibles too high, couldn't afford it, a life and death issue. every issue th

if they want to keep their union health care and medicare advantage or medicare supplementals, they ought to be able to. that is a common sense approach to improving our health care system. i want to rebuild our country. i called for the biggest infrastructure program since the creation of the federal highway system, because infrastructure creates jobs and improves the standard of living and it makes our businesses more competitive. and i can get it done, because i was a leader on a bipartisan effort in congress to do that. i have called for a way to deal with the climate crisis, but part of it is a big bet on american innovations, which we can do. hello we have to solve this problem not only here, but around the world. these are the kind of solutions i will put forth as your president. you know what is even deeper than these policy discussions is how terribly divided we are closer in many ways that is the central issue facing this country, which is why i believe the challenge that the next president has to step forward and address is how we resort a sense of common purpose to who we are

paul: kamala harris trying to kim, the medicare for all straddle, i'm still going to get there for medicare, 10 years instead of 4 like bernie and have medicare advantage plans although you'll still have to if you have private health care as an employee of a company, you give that up, but you might have a choice of some medicare advantage plans. >> well, her rivals were all ready to tear her apart too, i think that's very important, they continue to point out, look, you're still going to lose your private health insurance, the federal government is still dictating what kind of health care people can have, that goes to the fact, again, this is a very big divide out there. now, i would argue one also without as much distinction as some of the democrats on the stage would suggest whether you are for medicare for all or -- which is imposing that immediately on americans or for public option on the installment plan, you know, we are all going to end up with government health care at some point, but the distinctions at least for now are really resinating in the party. paul: what about sanders ver

medicare for all will crater whatever it's going to crater which is medicare but we've got kamala and they are mixing it up in the beginning over this medicare for all conversation. it's hard to follow for most people who don't know the issues for this is how it went down. >> vice president biden's campaign called your plan "a have it every which way approach" and its "part of the confusing pattern of equivocating your health care stands." >> he's probably confuse he's not listening. >> you should get something good in ten years, you should wonder why it takes ten years but it will require middle-class taxes to go up, not down. >> the cost of doing nothing is far too expensive. >> laura: did joe biden win that exchange? >> i think he pointed out that kamala harris is all over the place. he could've pointed out that bernie's plan eliminates private health care altogether. he just came out and set it and owned it. kamala harris' problem as i wrote in a "wall street journal" op-ed issue flip-flopped on every single issue. she wants to have it every single way. every 30 minutes of discuss

she wants to do is a, i support medicare for all. then not have to defended any of the unpopular parts of that. that include higher taxes, and eliminating higher tax insurance, she does not top talk about that, she tried to craft a plan that said we have some role for private insurers but that is so heavily regulated, it is more regulated than medicare plan. we want eliminate private insurance but they will eliminatisme --ism employer heah chunk as we kno insurance as wew it. kamala harris shows that democratic party has a problem with health care, her medicare for all problem is the democratic party problem. kennedy: a good point, that is such a good point, it makes you wonder, why did she sign on to cosponsor bernie's plan inn the first place, it is a bad move, because she didn't read the whole thing if she did, she didn't think about the consequences, they are in. it is baked in on a single payer system, and that is what i can't understand when someone of these other candidates talk about it. kamala included, single payer means th

he has said, medicare for all is a good idea. so when i talk about my medicare for all plan it is about building on the success of what president obama achieved. >> did you hear them building on the success last night? >> not at all. i would say, focus, focus, focus. the obama care is not your target. president obama is not your target. your target is donald trump. i think cory touched on this. he spoke a lot about, and this is where i think other democrats should have done better. talking about what voters have lost during the trump administration and talk about what you as president would bring back. that is an effective line and very powerful. it's not -- you don't have to go back and relitigate anything that obama did on that particular debate stage. you talk about what voters have lost, the old thing, the old adage, what have you gained, is your life better in the last four years than -- >> ronald reagan. are you better off. >> are you better off. so the real question is, are you better off now than you were when president t

so to base anything on medicare rate second there is no difference between that and medicare for all. and third one of the concerns is if it is out there if there is a default rate why will the insurer go to the default rate? they won't have those broad networks and then we come back to medicare for all. >> so to follow up, to be clear going to the arbitration process we are using a benchmark ultimately we do the same thing so i would say if you think medicare is too low and that is fine that doesn't mean you can't use it times two or times three and that advantage is that isolates it to be gained by market actors trying to engage to change that benchmark rate that is one advantage. >> 25 percent of us hospitals manage their cost well enough that they are successful under medicare and we are not talking yet about cost. the recent report shows that they build commercial players taxpayers 240 percent of medicare so what is the actual cost and how do we agree on a common standard? we believe 125 percent is fair. >> thank you very much. >>. >> thank you for the ranking member and the work

that whole time she had medicare. i want to strengthen medicare for the people who are on it, and then expand it to anybody who wants it. i also believe, though, if somebody has a private health insurance plan that is strong, that they want to hold on to, they should be able to do it. what i don't believe is that the profit motive of big pharma or big insurance companies should ever determine in our great nation whether somebody gets health care or not. >> thank you, secretary castro. senator harris, senator bennet had suggested you support banning employer-based health insurance. that true? >> first of all, with all due respect to my friend, michael bennet, my plan does not offer anything that is illegal. what it does is it separates the employer from health care meaning that where you work will not be -- the kind of health care you will not be a function of where you work. have i met so many americans who stick the a job that they do not like where they are not prospering simply because they need the health care tha

medicare for all would be a single-payer. would you mover, to medicare for all? >> the key question is how much we spend on health care through public insurance programs like medicare and medicaid, plus through private premiums that individuals and employers pay. a medicare for all debate largely puns on the question of how medicare for all would lower total spending. would it be through reduced quantity, covering fewer services? who will make that decision? or will it be through lower prices? told providers be willing provide the same services for substantially lower prices? as a society, we need to have a serious conversation about what we think public insurance has to cover. health care is not one thing, it is a continuum of things. medicare for all that covers every possible service available is not sustainable or practical. saying medicare for all that covers a limited number of services may be more sustainable not politically palatable. david: katherine baicker and allison hoffman, thank you both for being with us today. up, she has run a leading tech compa

when i ran for congress, in 2005, iran on medicare for all. -- i ran on medicare for all. when i was traveling around my congressional district, this was pre-obamacare. people were being dropped from their coverage because of pre-existing conditions. their insurance company's charge too much money, co-pays and deductibles were too high. they could not afford it. it is a life or death issue. every issue the american people care about our kitchen table issues, that they struggle with every night that they cannot get sleepover because they are worried about it. it is when their child is sick and they do not know how they will pay for the treatment they need. i know what this feels like as a mom. a toddler has an allergic reaction to eggs. he touched his high -- his eye, his face blew up the right doused him and water and gave him benadryl and rushed to the emergency room. i was afraid his throat would close. the one thing i was not afraid of is i had an insurance card in my wallet and a credit card in my wallet. imagine every mother or father rush into the emergency room who

they will spend hundreds of millions of dollars to defeat medicare for all. at the last cnn debate, right in the middle of the debate, there were ads attacking medicare for all. that will not stop. but i believe the momentum is with us. this dysfunctional health care system is not defendable and we are going to win this fight. thank you very much.

but i will say that under medicare, we should allow medicare to negotiate directly with the drugs can. -- drug companies. in our country, there is a law that forbids the government from negotiating directly with the drug companies to get lower prices. every other country in the world negotiates. we don't. and the result is that we pay two to three times what all those other countries pay. we need to allow the government to use its purchasing power to negotiate with these drug companies that have monopolies and drive down the prices. host: this is the first call for you. this is rachel from vermont, with david mitchell of patients for affordable drugs. rachel, go ahead, you're on. caller: hello. while i appreciate and understand that the consumer needs to be taken into consideration and that prices in this country are overly astronomical, i don't deny that, i don't necessarily agree that medicaid for all is the answer either. i am currently on medicaid myself because i am disabled and i am still not able to get what i need on it. i would still, if i were to have -- if i were to become,

you support medicare for all? >> yeah. >> vice president biden supports a public option on top of president obama's healthcare law. republicans are attacking medicare for all, it is something that would take away private insurance. if you are the democratic nominee, how do you fight that argument from the right? >> on medicare for all? >> it is easy. back to the first thing i told you about me, i'm different than most candidates that are running for president right now because i have a sensibility and an understanding about how people who live in these rural red places, who are republicans, see the world. i hate to admit this fact, but i have uncles who voted for trump. anyway, back to -- so i know -- i know what's going on in their minds. so when i ran for congress, in 2005, i actually ran on medicare for all. let me tell you how i got there. when i was traveling around my congressional district, this is pre-obama care, people were being dropped their coverage because of preexisting conditions. their insurance co

sociasocial security is $7 triln in debt and medicare has over$3 $3 trillion in debt and get a parade of candidates on national television last night said they want to double and triple the government g expenditures. there is too much compromise and washing and. there's always an agreement to spend more money. there's always an agreement to throwco your kids and grandkids money int and put this country further at risk. admiral mike mullen put it this way, he said the most significant threat to the possible securities or death. and all around me on my side of the aisle, thoser who say our military is hollowed out but can't complete its mission. well, perhaps the mission is too big for the budget. for everyone around the world to spend $50 billion a year building roads and bridges ines afghanistan in the last 20 years and to be continued that forever when the president put forward a proposal to. both parties agree to increase the debt. to increase the debt for different reasons, but the only way to get there is to givee me my. that is what both sides say. the right ones for the military

he is talking about who is bringing us the debate. >> the author of the medicare bill. let me clear up one thing. if people talk about having insurance -- there are millions of people that have insurance but cannot go to the doctor and when they come out of the hospital, they go bankrupt. talking about and others up here are talking about is no deductibles and no copayments. your question is a republican talking point. way, the health care industry will be advertising tonight on this program. nermeen: that is bernie sanders speaking on tuesday night's debate. dolores huerta, i want to ask you about the comment he made about the advertisements that play both on tuesday as well as wednesday night. there were repeated ads in which the health care industry attacked the very proposals that were being put forward by the more progressive candidates, just as one example, a very powerful group, partner for america's health care future, thee slogan is -- politicians may call it medicare or the, medicare buy-in public option, but it all mean the same thing, higher taxes for worse
