The Democratic Party’s platform is based upon deceit. These people cannot be honest about their intentions for fear of being thrown out of office. Does anyone remember this whopper, “If you like your plan, you can keep your plan.” Yeah, right. Or, how about, “You’ll save $2500 with our plan.”
These people have completely screwed our health care system. But they’re not done, they want to make it better! Of course, they can’t say the real goal is a single-payer plan because that too has become politically unpalatable. Here is an excerpt from Politico:
To avoid divisive intraparty fights that drive candidates left — only to be attacked by Republicans for favoring socialized medicine — the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee warned aspirants last year about the political liabilities of endorsing “single payer,” according to sources familiar with the advice. An influential progressive group even urged candidates to discard the often-misunderstood phrase and embrace “Medicare for all” to draw strong connections with the popular seniors’ health program.
A third of the way through the 2018 primaries, Democrats have largely prevented the Bernie Sanders-led groundswell of single payer support from swamping the contests. And they're fine tuning their messaging to build support for the idea. Kara Eastman, a progressive Democrat hoping to knock out incumbent Republican Don Bacon in Nebraska’s second congressional district, pledged to support the idea but refuses to use the term “single payer,” calling it a “buzzword.”
Yeah, they’re constantly fine tuning their message to deceive the American people.
