Medicare-for-all plans, including those floated by several Democrats seeking the White House in 2020, are "immoral" proposals that will reduce health care quality overall, Fox News' Melissa Francis said. Francis made the remarks Monday on "Outnumbered," charging that when the government offers health care coverage to everyone, "the quality goes way down" and people who can afford it will look to other countries for their care. She claimed that in European countries where universal health care has been instituted, people who can will come to the United States to get treatment. MEDICARE CHIEF SAYS MEDICARE-FOR ALL IS 'BIGGEST THREAT TO AMERICAN HEALTH CARE SYSTEM"The people who have this free health care are stuck in this system," she added. Francis charged that when Democrats "frame" Medicare-for-all as a "moral construct," they instead were proposing a "tiered system" wherein wealthy Americans benefit more than the average person.
