Klobuchar is right: Buttigieg basically supports ‘Medicare for all’

Debate over socialized healthcare was the key topic of the first hour of Friday night’s Democratic presidential debate. It started with a heated clash between Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders on the whopping price tag, $34 trillion, for “Medicare for all,” a government takeover of healthcare.

Amy Klobuchar was having none of it. She chimed in to blast Sanders for how unrealistic his plan is, seeing as it has essentially zero chance of passing the Senate. Klobuchar also wisely noted that socialist healthcare would throw hundreds of millions of people off of the private insurance they have now even if they’re happy with it.
