RT @dsam4a: Louder for the people in the back! M4A means: 🚫No copays 🚫No deductibles 🚫No premiums ✅Yes taxes will go up but all but the very wealthy will save money Confusion comes from misinformation by for-profit insurers, which the corporate media and centrist pols play along with. https://t.co/Sg8GX6rjgq | 0 | 9085 | |
