Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) is reportedly willing to settle for half a loaf.

He doesn't have enough support to pass his “Medicare for All” bill – i.e., the whole loaf – which would put every person in the country under a government-run, single-payer health care system. So he will settle for expanding Medicare from the current enrollment age of 65 to age 55 or 60 — at least for now. Call it “Medicare for More.”
