Claims analyzed
Working people can't afford health care or child care and fear AI job loss — Opinion (50/100)
Classic Bernie — frames real pain points as a Washington blind spot.
60,000 Americans die yearly from unaffordable healthcare — Dubious (45/100)

US spends twice as much per capita as any other country with universal care — OK (65/100)
US per-capita spend is highest, but 'twice any other country' is a stretch — Switzerland and Norway are closer than 2x.

Top 1% owns more than bottom 93%; Musk alone beats bottom 53% — OK (60/100)
Top 1% vs bottom 93% is roughly accurate; Musk vs bottom 53% depends on exact net-worth timing and fluctuates wildly.

Citizens United gave billionaires control over the entire political process — Sketchy (30/100)

Pure value judgment — 'radical' depends on your politics, not facts.
