Way to unify the country: Have taxpayers pay the debt of those who chose to enter into a contract.
Schumer wants Biden, through executive order, to immediately cancel up to $50,000 of student debt per borrower. Per the Yahoo story, Biden has called for forgiving $10,000 in student loan debt as part of a broader Wuhan virus relief package.
“Getting rid of student debt,” Schumer said during an interview with The Ink. “I have a proposal with Elizabeth Warren that the first $50,000 of debt be vanquished, and we believe that Joe Biden can do that with the pen as opposed to legislation.”
Guess who owns most of the public student loan debt? Taxpayers.
So let me understand this liberal logic: Government issues loan, government cancels loan, and then government puts one’s debt onto another taxpayer?
What a racket!
Heaven forbid the government actually look at the CAUSE of skyrocketing debt and develop a viable SOLUTION. Guess it’s much easier to make this problem “vanquish.”

Mark Cuban with loser Hillary Clinton
Hey, if this “stimulus” is coming out of his $4.5 billion net worth, fine by me!
From MyFoxChicago:
Billionaire and “Shark Tank” co-host, Mark Cuban is pushing for a new approach to prop up the economy — $1,000 stimulus checks to be sent to American households every two weeks for the next two months.
The investor and owner of the Dallas Mavericks told CNBC that it’s critical to help the two economies that exist: one comprised of people able to pay their bills and one that’s not.
“Those without [help] are struggling badly,” Cuban told CNBC. “We need to get them help.”
And this isn’t the first time Cuban has pushed for the plan.
In May, Cuban proposed this idea on Twitter, writing, “It’s time to face the fact that PPP didn’t work. Great plan, difficult execution. No one’s fault. The only thing that will save businesses is consumer demand. No amount of loans to businesses will save them or jobs if their customers aren’t buying.”
Cuban tweeted that 128 million households in the country should be given $1,000 every two weeks for the next two months with a stipulation that they spend the money in 10 days or lose the money — a quick way to funnel money back into the economy, Cuban contends.
“Now I don’t care what they spend it on,” Cuban told KNX 1070 News Radio in May. “It could be candy, it could be rent, it could be their mortgage, it could be anything that they deem necessary to them or that they want.”

MyFoxChicago reports that there is a Change.org petition that urges Creepy Joe to support a universal basic income of $2,000/month for U.S. residents because of the devastating effects of the response to the Wuhan virus. As of my scheduling this post, the petition had 240,000 of their goal of 300,000 signatures. From their story:
“Although the CARES Act was able to get $1,200 to taxpayers, millions of people fell through the cracks and still have not received their stimulus check,” the petition read.
Nearly a month after President Donald Trump signed the historic $2.2 trillion CARES Act into law, which saw millions of individual Americans receive one-time $1,200 stimulus payments, Democrats have powered another massive relief bill through the House, breaking the previous record at $3 trillion.
It has no chance of becoming law as written, but sparked difficult negotiations with the White House and Senate Republicans, as many say the first round of relief payments were not enough to combat the devastating economic effects caused by pandemic lockdowns aimed at stopping the spread of the disease.”

Along with the many problems of a universal basic income and giving people “free” money, there’s this: WE CAN’T AFFORD IT.

What the heck, why not? The government wants to spend $100 billion here, proposing $3 TRILLION there. Then we’ve got the $25 TRILLION clock.
Does fiscal responsibility really matter any more?
Apparently not. Creepy Joe Biden wants folks to have their rent and mortgage “forgiven” during the Wuhan virus. Don’t know how that will work out for landlords and banks though. I’m sure they, in turn, would be given some kind of taxpayer “relief.”
HuffPo reports that Biden’s plan includes forgiveness for rent and mortgage during the Wuhan virus. Depending upon which state you live in, that could go on until a vaccine is developed. Or a cure. Or until the demorat governor declares the emergency is over. Take your pick.
Biden said, “There should be rent forgiveness and there should be mortgage forgiveness now in the middle of this crisis. Forgiveness. Not paid later, forgiveness. It’s critically important to people who are in the lower-income strata.”
One missing element from Biden’s statement though: The former vice president’s Democratic campaign didn’t have any details on the proposal.
We don’t need any details. After all, we just have to pass a “forgiveness” bill to find out what is in it.

We have learned in the past that False Flag events can leave a trail. What sort of trail? False Flag events require people. A “people trail”.
We’ve all seen “crises actors”. Some we have seen at multiple events. These people are sourced from a variety of places. One method to recruit people is through advertising. Want ads/ Craig’slist, etc. The simplest would be advertising on your website.
But we are not talking about crises actors today. We are talking about real educated professionals. Actual scientist..
Who they are does not matter. What matters, is the time, position, location, skills required, job details and how long the job is for. We also need to keep in mind as to why these people were hired.
Conveniently, they were hired right before the covid-19 outbreak.
The following can be found on the CDC website. It can be found under jobs.
Be sure to take the time to read all of it.

Two weeks ago I wrote a post in which I wondered about the risk and reward of bureaucrats shutting down local economies. From my post:
“In America, you are free to pursue the job of your dreams or start your own business. Imagine the government comes in and demands to shut down your employer or business for public safety. You are now forcibly being robbed of your economic freedoms. Does that not make you some form of an economic slave of the government?
You can’t shut down businesses and expect them to re-open with their regular customers. Those customers have now lost their jobs and will not have any disposable income to spend once the economy is back open for business. That “social distancing” will be long gone when unemployment has reached massive levels.”
Now we’re seeing the economic realities of what happens when you are ordered to stay home. As reported last week: “Jaw-Dropping 10 Million Americans File for Unemployment in Two Weeks.”
I don’t know why anyone would claim that is “jaw-dropping.”
You don’t need a master in economics to believe it was to be expected when businesses are ordered closed and people to shelter in place.
Restaurants are going to be particularly hurt – not just now but also in the future as I anticipate “social distancing” mandates will not go away any time soon. Going out with family and friends to socialize over dinner and drinks is currently a thing of the past.
Last night the owners of Logan’s Roadhouse might have realized the realities of their economic future as they announced they would close 261 restaurants and layoff 18,000 people. From their announcement:
“From the day Logan’s Roadhouse was founded, taking care of our guests and employees has been our top priority. Properly balancing the needs of so many through this COVID-19 crisis has been incredibly challenging for us all. After many long days and nights, we’ve made the difficult decision to temporarily close all corporate restaurants as of March 18, 2020 until further notice.”
Read their whole statement here.
As Deplorable Patriot noted yesterday, we did not shut down our country after 9/11, the swine flu outbreak nor after the attack on Pearl Harbor. We were smart enough to know that the result of shutting down our country would be more devastating than the attacker.
My city is ordered shutdown until the end of April. Another three and a half weeks. And we’ve been shut down since March 16.
There’s got to be a better way, bureaucrats. Because the reality is that the coming economic depression is going to come at a great cost to many of the lives you were trying to save.

Shelter in place for another 5 months? Here’s what Stanford researchers are projecting and why. CLARA COUNTY, Calif. (KGO) — As the Bay Area heads into another weekend of sheltering-in-place due to the novel coronavirus pandemic, many folks are asking how much longer will it take before restrictions are lifted. That’s one of the questions that a Stanford research team set out to answer by developing an interactive tool that models the spread of COVID-19 over time with interventions such as quarantine and social distancing.
“We estimate that shelter-in-place would have to remain in place for about five months or more in order to actually completely suppress the epidemic,” said Stanford biology professor Erin Mordecai.
A 5 month shut down will completely destroy our county. That is what the democrats want. All I hear is panic that was created by democrats and the MSM . Just about everywhere I go, all I hear about is testing. How “we need more test”. How “more people need to be tested”. How “we have a shortage of tests”. Every actor, music artist, athlete, news media outlet, everyone under the control of the democrats are trying their best to convince people that they need to test. It’s like 1 giant advertising campaign. And policy is not the only product being sold.
The democrats are not the only ones that have been benefiting off covid-19. How about the suppliers of the test kits. I’ve provided a list of some of the top providers of covid-19 supplies. This could be by coincidence but the majority of the suppliers I investigated had made political donations to the democrats. To be fair, some have donated to the republican party. Still, democrats received more money than the republican party.
These are a few of the companies that I looked into. . I listed the percentage of their contributions that went to the democrats for 2018 and 2020. On line 1 and 2 you will see a second company listed with no data. They are owned by the same company listed on that line. The percentages are the same.
The following are some names of politicians that received donations from 1 or more of the companies listed. This list is not complete. It’s about 20% complete for the companies I researched. You will see some names listed more than once. That’s because it’s a different company. I wouldn’t worry about seeing a name once or twice. 4 or more, which there are, I think should be investigated. The last 50 or so names were small donations. 2 were for only 1 dollar. These were probably just to mask the people receiving the “payoff”. Dollar for dollar, the democrat party received more money than the republicans by a substantial amount. Remember that this is a partial list from less than half of the companies I listed and researched. There are a lot more suppliers out there.
That’s quite a list. I’m not sure what to think. I had to stop looking. But don’t let that stop you from having a look.. You can start at OpenSecrets.com.
The following comes from ThomasNet.com. Take notice that they mention a shortage of Covid-19 test kits. They also mention how “regulations have opened up”.
Currently, there is still a shortage of COVID-19 test kits in the United States. Although originally only the CDC’s test kits were approved for use, more and more resources have become available as regulations have opened up due to the need for more testing.
- The CDC, despite initially faulty reagents making its first test kits unreliable, is now offering accurate RT-PCR Diagnostic Panels and positive and human specimen controls. These kits should be used only in CLIA certified labs and are meant to be processed with the Applied Biosystems 7500 Fast DX Real-Time PCR Instrument with SDS 1.4 software, which is specialized equipment that requires specific training. As of March 14th, public health laboratories using the CDC’s assay to test for the virus aren’t required to get CDC confirmation of their samples.
- State, academic, and independent labs have been developing kits for their own testing as the FDA has loosened regulations. These labs must still validate their results according to FDA regulations and submit them for emergency use authorization within 15 days.
- Commercial companies have been increasingly putting coronavirus kits out into the market in recent weeks as regulations have loosened. While some are still very specialized and require specific instrumentation, easier and more automated tests are being developed. Test kits that work in a half hour by simply changing the color of a piece of paper are currently in the concept stage.
Additional shortages in test-related supplies like swabs, virus control samples, and RT-PCR instruments have limited the amount of testing laboratories are capable of. Some labs are awaiting government approval as well, and there is no standard machinery for every test, which means some labs don’t have the equipment for some of the tests available. However, as the FDA has issued emergency approval for more and more tests, the greater variety is allowing more laboratories to start testing with their own equipment, and without the need for special training. Because the need has been so great, the FDA has started allowing companies to distribute tests without official review as of March 16, as long as the manufacturers submit validation and data within 15 days.
Some private companies including Lab Corp and Quest Diagnostics have started offering testing services for the virus already, in addition to state and hospital labs. Many labs are still getting the testing up and running, however, so they aren’t able to test at full capacity yet.

For more test kits click here.
I know that I’ve mentioned on several occasions that test kits only equal more positive test results and more covid-19 related deaths. I discussed why in my post How Fake News MSM and the democrats lied to you about covid-19 testing.
I’m not going to repeat what I already wrote but I would advise you to go back and review it if you have any problems putting it all together.
I pointed out how what the democrats and the Fake NewsMSM had been reporting the wrong data. Their counts on people infected with covid-19 and covid-19 causes of death were high. Complete lies. They are still doing it today. Fake news CBS News reported the following,
The coronavirus death toll surpassed 10,000 in the United States on Monday, according to Johns Hopkins University. There are more than 347,000 confirmed cases across the country.
CBS is not the only Fake News organization reporting these numbers. It’s the same for just about all the Fake News Organizations. To read more of this garbage click here.
The actual number of deaths are provided in the image.
Lets take a look at the actual number of infections.
Remember that this report of cases includes presumptive positive test. These are not confirmed tests. Explained in the next graphic.
At this point we can see the obvious. The fake news CBS is lying. Deaths surpassing 10,000 if far more than what the CDC reports at 1,880. They reported 347,000 confirmed tests. CDC reports 304,926 of both confirmed and unconfirmed. Already we see Fake news of lying. If they did their actual job and looked for the real confirmed cases they would come up with the following.
158,700 actual confirmed positive cases. CBS more than doubled the confirmed positive. That’s out of the 1,019,261 total tested. That’s about 15% confirmed positive. This tells us that 85% of the people being tested come up negative.(Calculated with available data. Even if data was fully updated the end results, percent ratio will be around the same.)
Personally I question the results from commercial labs , but whatever. We work with what we have.
Given the information available we can calculate what percent of covid-19 related deaths out of the amount of people tested. 1,889/1,019,261=0.0018533035=.18533035 %. That’s nothing compared to influenza at 8.2 % mortality rate which is above the epidemic rate at 7.2%

Now look at the illness onset. Does it look like things are getting worse.
To view this source click here.
You will notice in the chart above that there is a decline in illness onset. You should also be seeing a decline in new covid-19 cases as well as covid-19 deaths. A headline on Bloomberg.com from April 5, 2020 for example .
Why do you think that is? It’s because there is a shortage of test kits. The supply of test kits should start replenishiong. As the inventory grows, more cases will appear.
You should also notice that all the new companies with the new “home tests” are being blocked. They might get approved in 2 weeks or a month from now but until then they are going to be blocked. Some companies get to bypass regulations because of the demand but that does not include the makers of home tests.
No COVID-19 testing at home yet but quicker options coming
WASHINGTON (AP) — Home testing for the new coronavirus may sound like a good idea, but U.S. regulators say it’s still too risky.
They’ve stopped companies that quickly launched home-testing kits until they can show their products can accurately detect the virus.
For now, the only way Americans can get tested is at hospitals, clinics or drive-thru sites, with a doctor’s order.
After a botched rollout, testing in the U.S. has ramped up thanks to high-volume testing machines and new rapid tests. Last week, federal officials said total tests -topped 1.4 million, and labs are processing nearly 100,000 tests daily. That’s the threshold many experts say is needed to track the virus.
Coronavirus screening: Calif. COVID-19 task force lead hopes to have enough tests for general public by next month.
The testing space has been a challenging one for us. I own that and I have a responsibility as your governor to do better and to do more testing in the state of California,” said Governor Gavin Newsom.
COVID-19 testing backlog decreased, more testing on the way, Gov. Newsom announces.
Gov. Newsom confirmed over 126,000 people have been tested for COVID-19 and 13,000 of those are still awaiting results. Staggering numbers that led to a state partnership with two California universities and a task force to increase the volume of tests.”Partnership with UC Davis and UC San Diego to create a minimum of 5 to 7 hubs where we will work with different vendors,” said Gov. Newsom.Leading the COVID-19 test task force is Dr. Charity Dean, Assistance director of California’s Public Health Department and Paul Markovich, president and CEO of Blue Shield of California.
East Bay company to have hand-held COVID-19 testing devices ready by next month
Markovich wants to make sure that anyone in need of a test can get one.”We’ve set a goal to get to 10,000 per day in the next two weeks to 25,000 per day by the end of this month. By the end of the summer in August getting to the capacity of 50,000 a day,” said Markovich.An increase of COVID-19 testing will hopefully mean a decrease in deaths. At least 300 people have died of COVID-19 in California.When we asked Markovich for a timeline of when his team plans to have available tests for the general public to get tested he said, “Well if we hit our targets, I would say within a month we should be able to do that. Ideally we want to be in a position to do that as we start relaxing the stay at home measures.”Governor Gavin Newsom also announced that more test sites are set to open. Abbott Laboratories committed to opening 75 testing sites in California.

More examples of the “shortages”
Here is what insider Dr Fauci has to say about the “deaths to come”. The following is from time.com. Generally I don’t like to “copy pasta” a complete article but in this case it is necessary source to make my point.
‘We Are Struggling to Get It Under Control’ Dr. Anthony Fauci Says About the U.S. COVID-19 Outbreak
Dr. Anthony Fauci, the top American infectious disease specialist,warned Sunday that the U.S. is “struggling” to curb the outbreak of COVID-19, but said that there are signs that mitigation efforts are working. In an appearance on CBS’s Face the Nation, Fauci, the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and a leading member of President Trump’s coronavirus task force, explained that while the country’s efforts are having an impact, he could not say “we have it under control.” “That would be a false statement. We are struggling to get it under control,” Fauci said. Fauci warned that the rate of new cases will likely get worse before it gets better. While the immediate goal is to reduce the number of new cases, the effects of mitigation efforts would not be visible for “days, if not weeks.” He warned that there is a “bad week” ahead, although the rate of new coronavirus cases may “flatten” by within the week, or somewhat later“As the cases go down, then you get less hospitalizations, less intensive care and less death,” said Fauci. “So even though you’re getting a — really improvement in that the number of new cases are starting to flatten, the death will lag by, you know, one or two weeks or more. So we need to be prepared that even though it’s clear that mitigation is working, we’re still going to see that tail-off of deaths.” Fauci’s comments came the same morning as New York Governor Andrew Cuomo announced that the number of deaths has been dropping for the first time in the state, and that there were fewer deaths on Saturday than on Friday. He said that it could be a “blip” in the data— or the “beginning of a shift.”

(CNN)The next two weeks will be crucial in the United States’ fight against the coronavirus, warn health officials, who are urging Americans to continue practicing social-distancing measures.
Dr Fauci is being made out as some kind of hero by the Fake News MSM and democrats. When we see this sort of “over the top” praise coming from the Fake News or democrats we should always question the person they are building. With that being said, here is what they used to think about Dr Fauci during the AIDS epidemic.
Date: Fri, 12 May 1995 04:16:51 -0400 From:DaveACTUP+@aol.com Subject: ACT UP zaps Tony Fauci I was one of the organizers of the action in SF against Fauci. Here is the text of the flyer that we distributed to the diners at the Project Inform dinner. Hope it helps to clarify our position. Take care. ACT UP! ************************************************ "You are responsible for all government funded AIDS treatment research. In the name of right, you make decisions that cost the lives of others. I call the decisions you are making acts of murder." Larry Kramer "An Open Letter to Dr. Anthony Fauci" San Francisco Examiner, June 26, 1988 Anthony Fauci, you are a murderer and should not be the guest of honor at any event that reflects on the past decade of the AIDS crisis. Your refusal to hear the screams of AIDS activists early in the crisis resulted in the deaths of thousands of Queers. Your present inaction is causing today's increase in HIV infection outside of the Queer community. We are outraged that Project Inform, an organization that supposedly works on behalf of the infected community, would insult us by bringing you to our city. You can't hide the fact that you are nothing but a despicable Reagan-era holdover and drug company mouthpiece. With 270,000 dead from AIDS and millions more infected with HIV, you should not be honored at a dinner. You should be put before a firing squad. Clinical trials: government sanctioned mass murder of PWAs Anthony Fauci, you are a murderer because you oversee government sponsored clinical trials that test and retest combinations of immunosuppressive, toxic therapies that kill people with HIV. The majority of U.S. clinical trials involve worthless antivirals like AZT combined with some other drug (generally another toxic antiviral). What these tests have proven is that you are able to piss away billions of dollars testing dangerous compounds that DO NOTHING to improve the quality of life, to stop opportunistic infections or to extend survival for people with HIV. AZT, 3TC, ddI, ddC, d4T and the current crop of protease inhibitors are nothing but poison. Ten years of the plague has shown us that trying to kill the virus kills people with AIDS, and you, Dr. Fauci, know it. How long will it take you to start focusing on the immune system, how to boost it and how to prevent the opportunistic infections that are killing people with AIDS? Even you admit that "the immune response against HIV is extremely powerful and is clearly more effective than any of the therapeutic approaches currently available in controlling virus replication." Still , you give your blessing to clinical trials of highly profitable toxins that destroy PWAs' already compromised immune systems. CD4s and viral load: a marketing exec's wet dream Anthony Fauci, you are a liar because you have known for years that CD4 counts are a travesty of a surrogate marker that, through drug company coercion, have been elevated to the status of "a standard." Now that everyone else knows it too, you and your corporate drug company cronies are urging researchers to foist another useless marker, peripheral blood viral load counts, on our frightened, desperate community. Peripheral blood viral load fluctuates in blood circulation and offers virtually no indication of the health or disease progression in HIV+ people. According to a recent article in the April 1995 issue of Lancet concerning viral replication, "the principle that virus suppression will produce a major clinical benefit must remain an article of faith." Information like that isn't stopping doctors of death like Marcus Conant from insisting that "patients should be treated earlier with combination therapy, and we should be using markers such as PCR and branched DNA to measure viral load as surrogate markers in clinical trials." Your scheme isn't too difficult to figure out; promote another invalid surrogate marker that has no relation to health or life expectancy of PWAs; develop a test that costs $200-$300 to measure this invalid marker; encourage the creation of more deadly drugs that effect this invalid marker; and then compare the pathetic results you get from these deadly drugs to the more pathetic results you got from AZT and other nukes. In the eyes of the government everybody wins. Companies that sell drugs and market tests get rich and PWAs who sacrifice their bodies in your trials of death are eliminated from the face of the earth. The fact that your clinical trials aren't meant to save our lives is no secret. A December 1994 BETA article "A Remarkable Combination: AZT plus 3TC" reports that the Phase II/III studies of these drugs were "designed to evaluate the effect of the combination on laboratory markers of HIV disease progression, such as viral load and CD4 counts, not critical endpoints, such as opportunistic infections and survival." AIDS activists from ACT UP San Francisco and DNCB Now! have been screaming for over a year that HIV+ people need to activate their cell mediated immunity and raise their CD8 counts. These activists were invited to the NIH to present a forum and share their knowledge and experience with researchers. Finally some researchers are coming around and hearing our voices. Doctors like Susan Buchbinder who in the August 1994 issue of AIDS stated that "elevated levels of CD8 cells in healthy long-term HIV+ individuals suggest that these cells play an important role in delaying disease progression." Because of your 1995 Annual Review of Immunology article we know that you know this, Dr. Fauci, but still you prattle on about those CD4s that tell us nothing at all. Selling out: from "Murderer" to "Tony" One thing that 10 years of the plague has taught us is how easily people and organizations can be bought off. You are one of those people, Dr. Fauci. Project Inform is one of those organizations. During this time of crisis you are complacent; part of a government bureaucracy that values thriving pharmaceutical company entrepreneurism over the health of people with HIV. You are a pill-pushing pimp that cooperates with drug companies in forcing dangerous concoctions down the throats of a desperate community that is brainwashed into believing that taking a pill, any pill, will help them. AIDS drugs are not sold to help people, they are sold to make a profit. The situation is so out of control that drug companies now create and sell drugs like Marinol, a synthetic derivative of the natural compound marijuana. The conflict of interest, so apparent between you and the pharmaceutical corporations, has now been embraced by those in the AIDS community who claim that they are leaders. In their present state, organizations like Project Inform, San Francisco AIDS Foundation, and ACT UP Golden Gate are all so embroiled in conflict of interest that they must be viewed as enemies by PWAs. Project Inform is still pushing AZT. San Francisco AIDS Foundation's BETA reads like a promo piece for Glaxo. And many of today's so-called AIDS activists are nothing more than public relations representatives whose job it is to create a demand for the latest overpriced cure du jour. In the meantime, grassroots efforts like the AIDS Cure Act are assailed by these sellout AIDS organizations that have no desire to ever see a cure. Ten years of hope? Fuck that. Try a decade of death and greed. Go back to Washington you bastard.
That’s not something the democrats or MSM is going to go out on a limb to show you. Sure it’s from 1995, but old habits can be hard to break.
Closing Rant
“Much of the Pacific fleet was rendered useless: Five of eight battleships, three destroyers, and seven other ships were sunk or severely damaged, and more than 200 aircraft were destroyed”.
Forget about my personal comments and look at the facts I presented today. Mainly look at the amount of deaths are being reported, actual confirmed cases and real mortality rate. Look at all the politicians that have recieved donations from the test kit manufactures. Look at the push to buy test kits. Look at behind pushing a longer shut down. Do you believe the test are a waste of time? Are we already infected with a type of coronavirus and the wuhan virus has nothing to do with the strains discovered here in the USA? Do you believe that democrats are conspiring with the MSM? Do you think this shut down creating a more problems then we would have if we just let covid-19 run it;s course? Do you believe that the democrats want to force mail in voting so they can cheat? Do you believe that the democrats are exploiting the pandemic? Do you believe Dr. Fauci is an insider working with the democrats? Do you believe the democrats and the MSM are causing people th panic? Do you believe that President Trump is getting all the relevent information he needs? Do you think that his advisors, staff, etc are doing a good job at keeping him informed? Do you believe the pandemic is a distraction? How about a smokescreen created by the democrats with help from foreign governments? Do you blame China for the pandemic or does it come from US Soil? Do you feel this may be a way to destroy the economy worldwide? One thing that should be perfectly clear is is that shut down needs to end and justice needs to be served.
Please tell me your thoughts

From CNBC: Joe Biden, former vice president and 2020 Democratic presidential hopeful, said Friday he would bring back the individual mandate, the penalty for not having health insurance, which was a pillar of the Affordable Care Act.
“Yes, I’d bring back the individual mandate,” Biden said in an interview on CNN. The individual mandate would be popular now, “compared to what’s being offered,” he added.
Biden played an integral part in crafting the ACA, commonly known as Obamacare. However, President Donald Trump eliminated the individual mandate in 2017 by signing the Republican tax bill, effective the 2019 tax year.
Nearly all of the Democratic presidential hopefuls support some kind of government health-care plan.
While he does not support of “Medicare for All,” Biden said people should have the option to buy into Medicare if they want it.
“If you provide an option for anybody who in fact wants to buy into Medicare for All, they can buy in,” the Democratic presidential front-runner said.
Biden also took a nuanced approach Friday, saying he supports providing emergency health care for undocumented immigrants in the U.S.
“I think undocumented people need to have a means by which they can be covered when they’re sick,” Biden said. “In an emergency, they should have health care.”
