Kucinich Is Lone Candidate For Single-Payer System


 

“Years ago, when I was a city councilman in Cleveland, I had a proposal I thought would do a lot to protect the environment and move people around our community efficiently. I proposed free [public] transit,” he said. “And the people who attacked the idea threw up their arms and said, 'My God! If we have free transit, everyone's going to be riding the bus!' Exactly. That's what we want. You want people to use the health care system, so that they're healthy.”

'I'm talking about a plan where everyone's covered, [and it] covers everything.' REP. KUCINICH
