The moderator interjects: "We just received a message from President Dumpf. He says, and I quote, that "Tippy needs to tip-toe better than that if we're going to believe that story."
Sanderson suddenly raises his hand to be recognized.
"I'd like to know, Biden, why you oppose Medicare for All."
"Because people need options, and you know, Sandy, you haven't told us, how, how you're going to pay for it?"
"I've explained this many times. It will come out of payroll taxes. But overall this will cost less than what people are paying for insurance with no co-payments or deductibles or any contingencies."
"Like in Caliente?"
"Yes."
"How can you say good things about that, that country. It supports the Red Death."
"There's good and bad there, and their healthcare is good."
"You're never going anywhere with a comment like that," Boring says.
"That was last time. This time is different. This time I have millions more people ready to fight the billionaires, and anyone who puts their interests above the people."
"The people?" Boring rises up on his toes. "I support the people, I support the Declaration of Independence, I believe that all men are created " uh, uh, well you know how it goes."
"Equal, Biden, equal," Sanderson says. "Did you forget that word, or maybe it's not in your vocabulary. Yes, it's time for the people to rise up as one, and as the Declaration says, use their right 'to alter or abolish' this corrupt government of ours."
"That's right, you're not a Democrat. You preach the Red Death."
"I'm a Democratic Socialist, Biden. You know that means? I don't support the fossil fuel industry that wants to destroy our environment. I don't support the pharmaceutical industry that wants to destroy our health. I don't the support the military-industrial complex, which benefits from our biggest entitlement program. And I don't support reducing taxes for the billionaires."
"I'm with you on the taxes," Boring says. "But those other industries. Well, we can't just overhaul our economy. You know without oil in the machine, then the machine, it breaks down."
