WASHINGTON, D.C.—Many Democrats have been pushing for what they call Medicare for All—making the Medicare program available to every American—for years, but the pandemic has caused them to rethink this proposal.
“I used to love the idea of universal health care,” Senator Bernie Sanders said, “but then I realized there are lots of people I don’t want to give health care to, so we needed a proposal that reflects that.”
Now a number of Democrats have introduced a new bill: Medicare for All Except the Unvaccinated. It’s just like Medicare for All, but instead of providing health care for all Americans, it explicitly denies health care to anyone who doesn’t get a COVID-19 vaccine.
“And it’s very forward-looking,” said Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the world’s smartest socialist, “because it has provisions so we can later deny health care to people who don’t get enough booster shots. This is great because while I realized I like giving away free stuff, I don’t like giving it to people who don’t do what I tell them.”
While initially only the unvaccinated will be denied health care, there are proposals to expand that group, such as anyone who won’t apologize for voting for Trump or who doesn’t like Critical Race Theory. The hope is that by denying people health care, Democrats can get people to change their views. Or those people will die, which is just as good.

This is what I have predicted all for awhile…the next shoe to drop on Obamacare. I know the Bee is parody–but what truth!
Remember Ashli Babbit?
Nancy, are you listening?
At least she took it easy on Ninny
Look at the Twitter comments below that post. There is no way this country can survive with people like that. Something has to give. It is them or us.
Disconnected mass have no power, no matter the number. Because when push come to shove, they will just let themselves be picked up, one by one.
Don’t be surprised when they try it.
We already have Free Medicare For All People Who Aren’t White. This would just be more of the same.
Everything they’re doing is one step toward universal everything. Communism. Ain’t happening on my watch.
Been waiting for this one to drop.
Fully automatic firearms are banned from common ownership due to photos like the one above. Were they widely available – as they should be – pictures containing these types of persons and their messaging would never exist.
Full auto is fine when the taxpayers are footing the bill. I can’t afford to dump $30-40 in 8 seconds.
Looks like Greg Abbott is outdoing DeSantis. This is how you governor.
It’s going to be a who can one-up the other for the next several months. Hold on tight. So far, you’ve got DeSantis, Noem and Abbott
Noem already punted.
I am not sure if this was supposed to be satire, because in certain regions of Russia they are now declining hospital admission to those without the vax. I kid you not. They do provide exceptions for oncology and mental treatment, but not for much else.
Given how far the medical establishment has fallen from respectability I’m not so sure losing medical coverage is all that big of a deal. The hospital systems will beat them to the punch: the un-vaxxed will no longer be admitted, so WTF good is medical coverage if you cannot get treatment?
Stay healthy and learn to care for oneself.
Keep in mind, though, the Big One will be when they announce no more Social Security for the non-compliant.
And John Roberts is staying up late writing his first draft of the majority decision to allow the exception. You can take that one to the bank.
