The U.S. is already facing a forthcoming financial shortfall with the current Medicare system and healthcare policy experts say the problem will only be exacerbated if the program is ever expanded to a Medicare-for-All type system.

Progressives are gunning to implement a single-payer system or form of socialized medicine in the U.S. and President Joe Biden campaigned on lowering the age for Medicare eligibility. Experts warn the current Medicare system is facing a financial crunch that wouldn’t be able to withstand monumental changes, especially as the country’s population ages rapidly.
