I asked this the other day and got very little response. So let's try again. I currently spend close to $30,000 a year for out of pocket medical expenses. If we get medicare for all I figure my direct costs will drop to $10,000, maybe less. My question is how do you feel about providing me $20,000 a year of disposable income to spend on remodeling my kitchen, finishing my basement, and taking nice vacations. If we do get it I thank you in advance.
