This wonk ass nerd lol

The clip went viral on TikTok too #PeopleLikeFeelingSmart

The fact that this is literally how all insurance works and that apparently nobody understands that except healthcare wonks for some reason

He’s a brainiac in the best way lol

I don't know, i think i prefer the genocide lady's insane pep talks

I’m still trying to decide if he’s actually an S-Tier communicator, or it’s just that the bar is so low in our politics right now. Either way it’s been refreshing

This is the best explanation of Medicare for All I have ever heard.

You must ask yourself why other Democrats who supposedly want to improve Medicare wouldn't do something like phrasing the situation this way. They know the Medicare program is more vulnerable to attack with fewer people benefitting on it.

love how the humanitarian approach doesnt work with these senile yakubian apes it's always gotta be some benefit to them, only way to convince them

@ohJuliatweets Nothing wonky about that. It’s about as plainly as you can explain it

Bc people have been conditioned into a scarcity mentality from corporate propaganda, they believe that their survival depends on depriving others, instead of fighting for coverage for everyone and bolstering the best community AND individual outcomes.

Between this and the ‘small business owners should want it because it clears out an expensive line on their ledger’ argument, I really need people to get more wonky about selling m4a, not less.

So fricking brilliant at communicating this point!! Put me on Medicare coach!! #medicareforAll

Adding people to Medicare doesn't give Medicare more money. What the fuck is he talking about?

Health insurance CEO comp is not really moving the needles on health insurance costs in this country, but they are a nice boogey man

But... this is the basic concept of health insurance? how else would it work???

@daveweigel Honestly reprehensible that these people think it’s in any way morally acceptable to try to restrict other people’s access to healthcare because it means they might have to share. How shameful

@Bernlennials

Isn’t part of the benefit of Medicare that you aren’t paying any “excess money”? And this risk pooling is just what private insurance does already (esp under the ACA), plus an additional 2% profit margin. What point is he even making?

This dude is actually going to get it done man

These cool kids on the internet and their fascination with socially cohesive public policy that benefits everyone

Based

This such a thorough and concise way to describe Medicare for all for the average lay person, Abdul is so good man

OK but this is not unique to medicare for all? This is already the way ACA works.

oh joy, more subsidizing seniors

Holy shit you think this makes him a wonk? Damn bro that’s rough

Did anyone ask the young people funding BoomerHealth how they feel about boomers?

You mean this asshole?

He’s not lying

Yes, it does because doctors won't be paid well, and they'll retire early or find another career.

@biblulz kinda like how health insurance should work- but somehow it turned into tens of billions in profit for companies to say no to us lol

We need more leftywonks

He’s amazing

“this nerd ass nerd”

That argument is actually only solid if you are stupid.

The question is just more boomer 🪜 pulling lol
