71. Tell me how Bernie gets buy-in from all of the participants in the healthcare industry

To make Bernie's plan work, several things are going to have to happen.

The healthcare providers are going to all have to become nonprofits.

The medical professionals are going to take significant cuts in pay to go along with their significant increases in workload.

Medical device, pharmaceutical and healthcare equipment manufacturers will take significant decreases in revenue.

The insurance companies are going to have to go out of business.

All the people who work at those companies - most of whom are not rich - will need to get new jobs.

The American people will have to pay at least 2x - maybe 3x - the taxes they do now to support this thing.

Everyone on Medicare and Medicaid will have to integrate into Bernie's program. Seniors DO NOT want their Medicare tampered with, even a tiny bit - and those guys vote more heavily than anyone else in America.

The people who have health insurance they like will be forced into Bernie's new system - he doesn't allow a parallel private healthcare system, which most other countries do.

AND he has to get this through Congress, the people who barely got Obamacare passed.

And we're going to have to agree to disagree on profit.
