Bernie Sanders: “The policies and the politics of the Democratic establishment are no longer good enough.”

And it would prevent over 100,000 Americans from dying unnecessarily each and every year because they cannot make it to a doctor in time.

In fact, guaranteeing healthcare as a human right through a Medicare for All, single-payer system would cost $1 trillion less than our current dysfunctional system.
