DemDate in Houston: Moderates Push Back on Medicare for All
Biden did challenge the liberal senators on health care early in the debate, which was broadcast on ABC. He asked repeatedly how they would pay for their multi-trillion dollar Medicare for All plan, saying that Warren’s wealth tax left the proposal $28 trillion short. When Sanders pointed out that other countries, including Canada, pay half of what America does per capita on health care.But for the most part, the debate belonged to the lower-tier candidates. Candidates like Sen.
Buttigieg, who supports “Medicare for all who want it,” told Sanders that the problem with his proposal was that it “does not trust the American people.”Julian Castro Klobuchar also went after Sanders on health care, saying that ending private insurance is “not a bold idea. I think it’s a bad idea.”
