Hillary Clinton said Saturday that if elected she will move America one step closer to socialist, government-run healthcare. The statement from Clinton came as part of her deal to get the support of Bernie Sanders, reports the Washington Post:

Clinton, the presumptive Democratic nominee, said in a statement that she would “affirm” her support for allowing states to offer government-run health plans as part of the Affordable Care Act. And she said she would support allowing people 55 and older to buy into Medicare, a program available to people 65 and older.

Those steps fall well short of a single-payer, “Medicare for all” program that was a centerpiece of Sanders’s presidential campaign. But during a call with reporters Saturday, Sanders praised Clinton for “an important step forward” toward universal health care.

While Sanders, the socialist senator from Vermont, was able to extract the healthcare promise, he was less successful in getting Clinton to move in his direction on trade. Sanders wanted the Democratic Party to denounce the Trans Pacific Partnership, a trade deal that includes Canada, Mexico, a number of Asian nations including Japan and Malaysia as well as New Zealand and Australia.

Clinton backed the deal strongly when she was President Obama's Secretary of State but has since become critical without denouncing the deal as Sanders has.
