Is Medicare socialism? You want to get rid of Medicare. And a lot of the people against health care do. I want to preserve it and grow it. – Anthony Weiner
Listen, if the mayor wants to have a debate about education in this city, I got three words: bring it on. – Anthony Weiner
What I am saying is, all health care has a problem with costs. Medicare is growing slower than the private insurance plans. Why? Because of their efficiency. They dont have to give money to shareholders. Why should be defending shareholders? – Anthony Weiner
Do you know what the overhead is of the Medicare system? One-point-zero-five percent. Do you know what – private insurance is 30 percent in overhead and profits? Given a choice how Im going to improve health care, Im going to take it away from private insurance profits and overhead. Wouldnt you? – Anthony Weiner
You cannot blame the mismanagement of the economy or the fact that we have not invested adequately in education in order to give our people the knowledge, the skills and the technology that they need in order to be able to use the resources that Africa has to gain wealth. – Wangari Maathai
