'''Medicare for All''' is item 6 in the [[far left]] [[Occupy Wall Street]] list of demands. It reads: {{Quotebox|"Medicare for all American citizens or another [[single-payer]] healthcare system, adjusted by a means test (i.e. citizens who can afford it may opt-out and pay their own health insurance or opt-in and pay a means tested premium). The Medicaid program, fraught with corruption and fraud, will be eliminated except for the purpose of providing emergency room care to [[indigent]] [[non-citizen]]s who will not be covered by the single-payer program."}}
