3. I can't believe some people.

How are we ever going to compromise when right wing business owners complain about potentially saving $50,000 because of the public option, yet never once brings up the fact that they are spending $115,000 to insure 8 employees?

You have to watch this video.

7. Better than a public option

Medicare for all would be easier to sell to the public than the 1000 page bill that is currently being considered--as well, as being much easier to understand. All Obama has to say is, "just ask anyone who is on Medicare now if they want to see it ended, just ask." After a few years, Medicare for all would become the new third rail of American politics.
