The reality of free healthcare for all is becoming much more real. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down.

"Progressive Democrats are pushing for a vote on a controversial health-care bill after the party takes control of the House early next year. But the left’s push for 'Medicare for all' legislation would likely divide Democrats and pose a headache for House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), who is poised to become Speaker in the next Congress. Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.), who is co-chair of the Medicare for All Caucus in the House, told supporters on an organizing call Tuesday night that simply expressing support for the idea is not enough. 'When we have that majority, we need to make sure that we put it to use,' she said. Yet, many other House Democrats, including members of the leadership, are not on board with the idea of government-run universal health insurance."
