YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

With the weaknesses of the Affordable Care Act aka "Obamacare" being obvious after the debacle with health insurance giant Aetna, Bernie Sanders is calling for a quick fix that would save Obamacare: a public option. This would force health insurance giants to compete with an optional government-run healthcare plan, and keep them in check by means of this competition. How are Democrats responding? Well, they're running away from this fight, of course, and are afraid to take on another "politically taxing" healthcare battle. They're also bought and paid for by the health insurance industry.
