Sanders Discovers Health Care Crisis Exists, Just Not Under His Party
Senator Bernie Sanders claims Donald Trump 'could literally collapse' the healthcare system. A grave warning indeed, coming from a sitting senator whose party, while in power, has overseen record pharmaceutical profits and failed to enact universal healthcare despite repeated promises. One might wonder why collapsing the system only becomes a 'threat' when the other team is in office. This
convenient foresight ignores the fact that healthcare has been financially 'collapsing' for millions of Americans under both administrations, burdened by co-pays, deductibles, and sky-high drug prices. Perhaps a look at the revolving door between pharmaceutical lobbyists and congressional offices would be more illuminating than speculating on future Trump blunders.
