Greg Casar: “Our job is to pass into law giving Medicare to every single…”

“They can get us to even give up. But that cynicism is a lie. Arizona. And our job is to expose the truth. Our job together is not only to save Medicaid and Medicare. Our job is to pass into law giving Medicare to every single single person in this country so you never again have to check your bank balance before you go to the doctor. Imagine a world where health care is a right. It'd be very hard for a fraudster politician to come after our Medicare if every single person had it and they had to come after every single American.” (31:57–32:11)
