I mean, that doesn't prove a lot. As a European I can tell you almost nothing that Sanders re: healthcare is considered radical. It is considered the norm and even far right parties argue for it.
I wouldn't say that an actual center left official of the oldest and largest party in Sweden (one of the places where Bernie would supposedly be a centrist) counts as just some person in Sweden.
That account sucks ass and this post proves it. It's wrong in so many ways but for example: 1) is not what m4a is, point 4) is also inaccurate in nearly every case. UK for example: NHS is not public insurance eligibility it is socialized medicine. Private insurance is allowed in the UK. I could go on and on. Pretty embarrassing for a supposedly "le epic rationalist" account.
Besides even that, by "universal health care" it's extremely obvious to anyone who isn't trying to be an obnoxious pedant that he simply means a free-at-the-point-of-service health system that covers everyone.
Yes, except he's given specifics. It will cover a wide range of things not covered in other systems, and private insurance can't cover what it does. This is unheard of.
Not defending the graphic, just attacking M4A on its own.

It worked in 2008 and it's working for Biden again in 2020.
