motivating dr. liu's tremendous courage and self-sacrifice was a determination to remember what the people's republic of china desperately wants the world to forget -- tiananmen square. a poet, author and political scientist, dr. liu was in 1989 a visiting scholar at columbia university, but when the pro-democracy protests broke out in beijing in june of that year, he raced back to china to support them. he staged a hunger strike in tiananmen square in the midst of the historic student protests and insisted that they would remain nonviolent, even in the faces of the tanks which the chinese military deployed to smash them. in 1996, the party subjected him to three years of, quote, re-education through labor for continuing to question china's one-party system. in 2008, on the eve of the 100-year anniversary of china's first constitution and the 30-year anniversary of beijing's democracy wall movement, dr. liu dedicated his work on charter 08 to the matters of tiananmen square. today, eight years into

and dr. margaret flowers is a national board advisor for the physicians for a national health program. of you, good morning. let's start with definitions. doctor, how would you define single-payer as a working definition as far as health care is concerned? the easiest way is to call it national improved medicare for all. national, every person living in the country, and of the health professional in the country, is in the system. it is more comprehensive and there are no upfront out-of-pocket costs like co-pays or deductibles. then medicare for all, everybody pays into it through a preventive tax, and everybody is covered for the care they need. that is certainly an expansive definition, and it gives us some to work with, but it is much more expansive than national health insurance programs in other countries, which do include out-of-pocket expenses which often have secondary payers working alongside the government-run market. this would be much more expansive than perhaps anywhere in the wor
