"but taxes would go up!" ok but premiums would go down even more

I see lots of mentions of the cost of Medicare for All. But, it actually wouldn't necessarily increase health spending, and could actually decrease it. What it would do -- which would be controversial -- is redistribute health care spending from premiums and out-of-pocket costs to taxes.

That 2020 Bernie insurance tax calculator was really eye opening and i wish more politicians would make things like that to remind people how much they owe proportionately to their benefits. Without context, everyone thinks the estate tax applies to them.
