JOE HAS TO START TALKING ABOUT
THOSE ISSUES AS WELL.
>> HOW MUCH DO YOU AND JOE BIDEN
SEE EYE TO EYE THESE DAYS?
FOX NEWS AND REPUBLICANS HAVE
ADOPTED THE TALKING POINT THAT
JOE BIDEN HAS ADOPTED YOUR --
WHAT THEY CALL SOCIALIST AGENDA.
IS THAT TRUE?
>> OH, THAT IT WERE, BUT IT’S
NOT.
JOE AND I AGREE ON SEVERAL AREAS
AND WE DISAGREE ON OTHER AREAS.
BUT LET ME BE VERY CLEAR.
JOE’S AGENDA, IT IS NOT MY
AGENDA.
IF YOU LIKE MY AGENDA, IT’S NOT
JOE’S.
IF YOU DON’T LIKE MY AGENDA,
IT’S NOT JOE’S.
BUT HIS ECONOMIC AGENDA WILL
IMPROVE LIFE SIGNIFICANTLY WOR
WORKING FAMILIES ALL OVER THIS
COUNTRY.
FOR EXAMPLE, TRUMP HAS TALKED
ABOUT LOWERING THE COST OF
PRESCRIPTION DRUGS, RIGHT?
TALK AND TALK AND TALK, YET WE
CONTINUE TO PAY TEN TIMES MORE
FOR THE SAME EXACT PRESCRIPTION
DRUGS THAT ARE SOLD IN CANADA 50
MILES AWAY FROM WHERE I AM
TALKING TO YOU.
JOE BIDEN HAS A VERY SPECIFIC
PLAN TO MAKE CERTAIN THAT WE IN
THIS COUNTRY DO NOT CONTINUE TO
PAY, BY FAR, THE HIGHEST PRICES
IN THE WORLD FOR PRESCRIPTION
DRUGS.
JOE AND I AGREE ON THAT.
WE AGREE YOU’VE GOT TO RAISE
YOUR MINIMUM WAGE TO A LIVING
WAGE OF $15 AN HOUR.
JOE’S HEALTH CARE PROPOSAL IS
NOT MINE.
I BELIEVE FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY
HEART THE CURRENT SYSTEM IS
DYSFUNCTIONAL.
IT’S CRUEL.
WE CANNOT CONTINUE A SYSTEM
DESIGNED TO MAKE BILLIONS FOR
THE DRUG COMPANIES AND THE
INSURANCE COMPANIES.
MY VIEW, NOT JOE’S.
BUT JOE’S VIEW AMONG MANY OTHER
THINGS BELIEVES THAT WE SHOULD
LOWER THE ELIGIBILITY AGE FOR
MEDICARE FROM 65 TO 60.
MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WILL NOW BE
ELIGIBLE FOR MEDICARE.
THAT WE EXPAND MEDICARE BENEFITS
TO COVER DENTAL, HEARING AIDS,
EYE GLASSES.
IT’S A HUGE STEP FORWARD FOR A
LOT OF PEOPLE.
DOUBLE THE NUMBER OF COMMUNITY
HEALTH CENTERS IN AMERICA SO
PEOPLE HAVE ACCESS TO PRIMARY
HEALTH CARE.
STEPHANIE, NO, OBVIOUSLY, THE
REPUBLICAN PARTY LIES ALL OF THE
TIME.
JOE AND I AGREE ON SOME ISSUES.
WE DISAGREE ON OTHER ISSUES.
