... Wait for the Medicare For All bill to be analyzed by a respected and independent think tank [View all]
The prudent thing to do would be to wait for the Medicare For All bill to be analyzed by a respected and independent think tank. We all believe achieving universal health care is a laudable goal, where we differ is on how to achieve that goal. As Deng Xiaoping said "it doesn't matter whether a cat is white or black, as long as it catches mice. "
I have seen so many numbers being bandied about that I don't know which one to believe. There is a difference between believing something because it has the ring of truth and believing something because it's feels good. The latter is easy.
We have Trump and the Deplorables on the ropes. I don't want to let him and them off them.
As an aside I am going to do my best to avoid the intramural bickering. I don't give a rat's ass what you call it as long as everybody from some unemployed guy or gal to Bill Gates can get medical care when he or she needs it, as long he or she needs it, and it meets quality standards. The rich get to get nicer stuff than us but not when it comes to health care and the right to live.
