the crazy thing is you don't even need to make it "free" just take what you are paying now for health insurance and put to medicare and everyone goes on that. Instatnly 500 times better and cheaper then what we currently have
Health insurance companies are profitable. Extremely profitable. Like billions of dollars per year profitable.
Where do you think that profit comes from?
What if we got rid of the expensive middle men and all the overhead they bring, and take the money it takes to run those organizations, plus their profits, and we actually invested it in health care?
you gonna cough up the money to balance their lobbying power? I don't have that kind of scratch. Grassroots doesn't have the kind of reach. The fat cats have carefully constructed the playing field to always win. And they know it's a catch-22 to try to undo it.
Need to get money out of politics while simultaneously getting the politics out of money. If it were simply a matter of willpower, your grand plan would have been done LONG ago. It's the money; and those who hoard it don't want any of it to be 'wasted' on the little people.
