Hot new Republican attack on "Medicare for All" will make socialism more likely

Sometimes it seems that the forces of socialism have no greater ally than the modern Republican Party. After all, how else to explain a hot new Republican attack on ‘Medicare for All’ that is premised on the idea that enacting it would endanger Medicare?

“If you want to protect Medicare, vote Republican,” Florida Gov. Rick Scott, who is running for the U.S. Senate, tweeted. “If you want a socialist experiment with Medicare, by all means vote Democrat.”

The National Republican Congressional Committee has run an ad against liberal Democratic congressional candidate Antonio Delgado saying his support for government-run healthcare would be the “end of Medicare as we know it.” Rep. Bruce Poliquin, R-Maine, launched a similar line of attack against his liberal opponent.
