HomeMy WebLinkAbout11/17/2020 Item 18, Sarguis Wilbanks, Megan From:tod sarguis < To:E-mail Council Website Subject:Medicare for all The time is now more than ever that we endorse Medicare For All. It costs less and does more. We pay the cost regardless, and its not free medical in any way as portrayed by corporate news. That said, no one can ever go bankrupt, no more copays and deductibles, and drugs would be slashed in pricing. Everyone must be covered to protect all the vulnerable. Elderly and children especially who disease from others could be spread easily. But more importantly to me, allowing it to be its own institution, allows people the true freedom to oppose the corporate stranglehold. This allows the medical system to grow naturally with its only goal to eliminate disease without profit. This is also about what is happening overseas for profit as well as what can only be perceived as imposed austerity and control of the domestic population for huge profits for a small sector of the population.. Only Medicare For All will free us from the corporate chains controlling our institutions and cover all people in San Luis and those passing through to elsewhere...
