Billionaire vs. Socialist: Mark Cuban Schools Bernie Sanders on Who Really Pays the Bills

What do you get when one really, really, really rich guy and a really rich guy who happens to be an elected official get into an argument on X? This exchange.

Bernie Sanders never had a real job before he won an elected office. He lived off the government and didn't even pay his child support. He was in his 40's. Suddenly he gets elected and his net worth slowly started to improve. He now has three houses. Maybe he doesn't think America does enough for other people, but it sure improved his circumstances. 

Mark Cuban reminded old Bernie how much the government really does do for Americans. It's quite a lot when it's all listed out like that, actually.

Let me add Bernie, the one debt not a single one of us will ever pay off till the day we die ?   Our health insurance premiums  And before you go in and on about single payer, ask  to take a look at your proposed Single Payer legislation.   You want the Sec of HHS to run it.  You can’t have a political appointee run an apolitical position  And you expect every provider and doctor to accept whatever rate is set by Medicare.  Big hospitals don’t know their costs.  They couldn’t do a BOM for any procedure.   They have negligible transparency.  If they  don’t know their costs, and you don’t know their costs, how is it possible for taxpayers, caregivers and patients to get a fair deal ? And the concept of “every other country does it “ ignores the fact that they all converted decades and decades ago, long before you and your peers allowed the extreme vertical integration we face now.  Which leads to the question.   , why have you not advocated for the Break Up Big Medicine Bill ?

That last part was key. Bernie and his fellow Leftists go on and on about soaring healthcare costs, yet they do absolutely nothing to fix it. In fact, they go out of their way to make it worse. 

Bernie and his pals are frustrating. They rant on and on, but their solutions are failures.
