Yes, that free healthcare crap that would save us many millions of dollars while making sure everyone was covered. How dare he!

If you think making tax payer funded, open come healthcare saves millions, you're the same person that thinks big Corp tax breaks will immediately improve the lives of poverty level folk

And before you try and cite that Koch bros study, that entire thing ran on the assumption that health care costs from hospitals would magically drop 40% somehow

People need to realize that if we're to live in a world where the rich literally print themselves free money, the bourgeoisie will need to accept that they will NEED social safety nets. You can take out 100K for an undergrad in performance art but you can't take out 100K for a medical procedure. That's the world we live in.
