More moderate Democrats attack Warren over paying for her healthcare plan

The 12 top Democratic presidential candidates sharply criticized each other over healthcare, gun control and anti-trust policy on the Ohio stage where they met for the fourth Democratic primary debate.Buttigieg made the remark after debate moderator Marc Lacey asked Warren to answer “yes” or “no” as to whether her plan would raise taxes on middle-class families. She did not answer directly, instead saying that she would not sign legislation that increased costs for the middle class.

“I have made clear what my principles are here, which is costs will go up for the wealthy and big corporations, and for hard-working middle-class families, costs will go down,” Warren said.Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont interjected to note that his Medicare for all plan would result in a tax increase for many Americans, but that they would see their overall costs lowered because of the elimination of deductibles, premiums and other healthcare costs.

Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar sided with Buttigieg, arguing that Warren needed to be more up front with Americans. “At least Bernie’s being honest about this,” Klobuchar said. “We owe it to the American people to tell them where we’re going to send the invoice…. The difference between a plan and a pipe dream is something you can actually get done.”

Warren attacked herself by refusing, repeatedly, to answer the questions asked of her about her (Bernie's) healthcare plan.

Log Cabin Pete can take several seats, he has about much a chance of winning the WH as I do.

It doesn't matter if one is a TheDemocrats or a GOP. If the individual isn't for the American people, why run for an election? How can we pay for the medical expenses and do the other things?

Monopoly money!

Serious question LAT: when do you ever question whether Republicans are “moderate” or too conservative? Be specific.

SHE SAID HOW SHE WOULD PAY FOR IT. THE RICH WOULD PAY MORE AN THE REST WOULD PAY LESS. WHAT SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND ABOUT THAT. DUH

Good. She needs to stop dodging the question.

because they would rather pay a for profit insurance company for access to their own health care they would rather the insurance company decide if you need treatment or not

Haha!!!
