“We are the only major country on earth that doesn’t guarantee healthcare to all people as a right, and yet we end up spending much more than they do,” he said.
“So I do believe that we have to move toward a Medicare for all, single-payer system,” Sanders added. “I think it’s not going to happen tomorrow, but that should certainly be the goal.”
Sanders cited the cost of U.S. healthcare and the number of uninsured Americans as proof more work is needed.
“But here’s the point, today, despite the gains of the Affordable Care Act, which is certainly voted for, we still have 35 million Americans without any health insurance, and many more who are underinsured,” he said.
“Meanwhile, we end up spending almost twice as much per capita on healthcare as do the people of any other country,” Sanders added.
